Editorial

Strong writing skills are a swiss army knife. Over the last 20 years I’ve worked in PR, marketing, communications, journalism, publishing, small press comics, charity fundraising, climate action, film, live theatre, and much more. The goals, audiences and methods preferred in each case are completely different, but the basic tools are the same.

I can help you find exactly the right approach for the kind of message you want to get across, and more importantly I can teach you to develop your own toolbox. Whether you’re working on a space opera or a suite of campaign flyers, I can help you make sure your writing is clear, consistent, impactful, and true to your unique voice. If you’re interested in working with me as an editor or copywriter, please contact me via the Enquiries page.
