I am also a writer for both web and print publications, and I have won awards for my written work (including 2003 Routledge Award). I cover all subject areas and specialise in equestrianism, academia, product descriptions and SEO content writing.

    Area Covered: UK
    Company Name: LT Editorial
    Employees: 1


    Work Experience
    -----------------

    Summary: Writing:

    I have written content for various companies, covering a vast amount of subjects ranging from garden centres to club culture through to literary webzines.

    Re-writes are a speciality; I am able to take the core substance of your work and transform it into engaging copy, whether it be academic, creative, seo focused or an in-depth article.

    If you need content from scratch, I can do that too! I have ghost written several short stories, and am able to adapt my tone and style to the nature of your subject.

    As the recipient of the Routledge Award for my writing, I can assure you of my ability to write both engagingly and concisely. I also have good research skills and, being the perfectionist that I am, I will always put 100% into your project.

    One of my specialist fields is equestrianism; not only have I written copy for several succesful equestrian websites, but I have also held managerial roles on competition yards. I also have extensive experience as copy editor for an equestrian magazine.

    Editing:

    I love editing! My first class honours degree in English illustrates my stance as a total word and grammar geek, and nothing makes me happier. Couple that with my love of reading, and there is really no question as to why I have chosen my profession as an editor and writer. I read anything and everything, from teenage fiction through to hardcore academia. Not only do I enjoy it, but I feel it is an essential tool for my job. Reading a broad range of material on a regular basis enables me to be the versatile editor and writer that I am. I have a keen eye for detail and will spot any mistake. Importantly, I am also able to restrain myself from general editing when it is just a simple proofread that is required.

      Paul was a fantastic client to work for. His communication was clear throughout, and he was always on hand to answer any questions. Payment was almost immediate, and he is a lovely, friendly guy. I would happily work for him again.
