Writer, Author, Storyteller
Finding and crafting genuinely human stories, the ones AI can’t reach.
You’re in experienced hands. I have written books and website copy, thousands of magazine features and hard-hitting news stories, as well as corporate and community histories.
Let’s engage and delight your readers, your audience or customers. Let’s entertain and enlighten. Let’s tell stories that resonate with real people.

What I do
Biographies and profiles
Gathering the stories that matter to you.
Need to relay the story of your company’s roots? Or gather a record of your grandmother’s mischievous early years? I have experience gathering and relaying both corporate and family histories.
Books
Let’s help you write yours. Do you need help to get started? Editing of your existing notes? A full writing service? Let’s get that book written!
Copywriting
For your website or corporate communications.
Does your company/organisation have stories to tell, for internal or external communication? Yes, I’ll craft engaging copy but I can also help you identify stories worth sharing. If need be, I’ll help you match these with the publications and media outlets that want them because I understand what editors and producers are looking for. I can write corporate biographies and have even crafted interpretive signs for historic sites.
Editing
Do you need that technical document “translated” into plain English? Want some life injected into a dull piece of writing? Have you started a memoir or autobiography but need help to bring it to life? Or just want a professional to pick up the niggly errors?
I’ll make the words sing, and the meaning clear.
Magazine and feature writing
Editors commission me because I offer original, relevant ideas and accurate, lively, well-crafted copy. They receive the right number of words, in the right style, always within the deadline. And I can write about almost anything, from corporate to culinary, fishing and farming to travel adventures.
Interviews
There is an art to asking the right questions, and knowing how and when to ask them.
Exit interviews for employees? An engaging live audience interview at an event? A quiet chat with a precious elderly relative, to gather their story? I can help when you need to draw out the real story or the information that matters. I’ll do this with skill and compassion, and we’ll have fun along the way.
Media liaison and publicity
Helping place your story in front of relevant editors and producers.
Research and brainstorming
What's the story you want to tell and why? Let’s talk about the audience you hope to reach, and the best way to connect with them.
