My work is based on the principle that writing is about more than language and creativity; it’s also about process and planning and overcoming any distracting, unhelpful inner dialogue. This is particularly helpful when you have something significant to share – an idea, an important story, research, your work or IP. When you want your words to make a difference, when you want to change the conversation.
Articles about writing
As well as information about working with me, you’ll find guidance and resources about different aspects of writing and content work organised under the headings of Get ready, Plan, and Create.
Get ready. Address any questions, confusion or doubt. Clarify the purpose of your project or work. Create a simple strategy to take you forward.
Plan. From strategy to action. Get organised to get things done. Develop your process. Work out the detail – what, when, who. Crucially, decide what not to do. Avoid overload.
Create. Write, produce and publish. Stay on track. Keep things fresh and relevant. Hone your skills – or ask me to write for you.
Why work with me?
Everything I offer is tailored to you, wherever you are on your writing and content journey. Because no one size fits all. We work together, side by side. We look at where you are, what you find tricky, and what you want to improve and achieve. You can also expect:
- Flexible support from an experienced writer and coach. Someone who can help you enhance your own writing and publishing skills – or who can lead your content projects and write for you.
- A warm, pragmatic, empowering approach. A thinking partner, coach, guide and mentor and, when needed, a practical, hands-on helper.
- The time and space to be, think and work at your best in a calm environment. This can include in outdoor spaces working with nature, if that seems good to you.
- An emphasis on sound communication and content principles.
- A clear, straightforward way of working together.
- Preferential pay-as-you-go arrangements for those self-funding for career development or in the early days of freelancing or business start-up.
