MY WORK
I specialise in writing and editing web copy, blog posts and articles, case studies, press releases, print copy (brochures, leaflets etc.) and product descriptions.
I can also write email & advertising copy, social media posts, e-books, reports, CVs and more.
I’ve written for lots of different sectors, including fashion, health and beauty, business, politics, finance, medicine, travel, parenting and more.
If you don’t see an example of the type of copy you’re looking for here, please get in touch and I’ll be happy to provide one.
