About Me
Years of writing experience come as standard in this fully-specced model. Solid copywriting knowledge and excellent proofreading skills are neatly packed under the bonnet.
0 - 60 in ... barely any time at all! Written copy starts smoothly, accelerates powerfully and romps efficiently over the line, boasting about its accuracy and professionalism.
From a school essay that needs the once-over, to global business websites and projects, my pen and I are in your pit waiting to ensure your vehicle outperforms the rest.
Extended metaphor over!
I'll help your words do exactly what you want them to do.
I teach writing (in English!) at Salzburg University, and I write for several private clients, who use my words daily, weekly, monthly and on the odd occasion.
Luckily, I have borrowed Hermione's time-turner, so I am perfectly capable of doing in a day what it takes others to do in a week!
