About me

There's different ways of putting things.

How you do makes a difference about how you come across. And that, in a nutshell, is what I do - help you come across the way you want to.

I've spent years dealing with words. It's the only work I've ever done. The lion's share has been as a journalist, researching, interviewing, writing stories, tidying up other people's copy, running campaigns...

But that's not the whole story. Here's a flavour of what else I've been up to.

I've given dense, technical copy a sparkle.

I've nailed a brand's identity in fewer words than there are toes on your feet.

I've taken care of email newsletters for an online shop and written punchy descriptions for its products.

I've taken 5,000 words of liner notes for a vinyl and CD release and fact-check and edited it to within an inch of its life.

Oh, and I manage a blog for a pioneering global aid website.

Putting things right, in other words.
