With more than 12 years' corporate communications experience, I can create original, engaging news and marketing copy either working from information supplied, or point me to a contact – from shopfloor to CEO – and I'll happily interview them to gain the information.
I also provide a professional proofreading service on any document for grammar, punctuation and consistency, or a more detailed sub-editing service covering angle and style. I also run proofreading workshops.
I help clients produce:
Persuasive marketing literature such as corporate brochures, leaflets, press releases and website content.
Insightful and interesting news writing for company magazines, ezines and intranets.
Role play scripts and conference speeches.
My skills lie in being able to adapt the tone and style of each piece exactly to the audience. By working to understand clients' employees or customers, I can focus on what will appeal to and motivate them. I also have, what some might call, an ‘obsessive’ eye for detail.

Experience:
Before launching my own business, I spent 12 years with a leading UK corporate communications agency where I was an award-winning editor of print and electronic publications. Editor duties included : journalism, sub-editing, proofreading, creative direction with design team, print management, project and account management.
Roles also included communications consultant, providing ongoing advice and implementing a range of strategies and campaigns to help clients communicate with stakeholders - including brochures, leaflets, posters and emails.
