Writer for hire

Freelance writing and content development services

As a freelance writer, I help brands and authors develop their voice and delight their audiences with engaging content. My main focus is ghostwriting non-fiction books, but I also work with businesses to copywrite their articles, ebooks, white papers, website copy, and more.

Whether I’m working with an individual author or a business, my job is to turn the client’s ideas into words on the page – words that are entirely authentic to them. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to this. I’m just as comfortable taking a kernel of an idea and developing it as I am writing to a strict brief or polishing up existing content. In other words, if you already know exactly what you want, that’s great, leave it with me. If not, I can advise on content, style and tone, and help you shape your ideas.

Prior to going freelance, I spent 10 years in non-fiction publishing, working with leading publishers and brands to spot trends, identify audiences and acquire content to meet their needs. Most recently, I worked as commissioning editor on For Dummies, the world’s most recognisable reference series, acquiring how-to books and training authors to write to brand guidelines.

Personally, I like content that’s simple and conversational, and that’s my natural writing style. However, I can write in whatever tone suits your project – formal or informal, personal or professional, chipper or serious, whatever you need. And, yes, my freelance writing is definitely less sweary than what you see on this site!
