Copywriting
You won’t win fans just shouting about how great you are. You need to show people what’s in it for them. I’ll help you convert prospects into punters through persuasive copywriting. My writing is 100% robot free.
Copy 1:1s
60 or 90 minute 1:1s over Zoom (if you’re a Teams person let’s call it quits now) to sort your copy in a live edit sesh. Enjoy the show.
Verbal Identity/ToV
We’ll work together to define and deliver your unique Verbal Identity / Tone of Voice (they aren’t the same thing but I won’t get all nerdy about it here, I respect the sanctity of the home page).
Copyediting
Know what you want to say, but need to make it…‘less crap’? I’ll red pen your ramblings to give your copy more punch.
The quickest way to get the ball rolling is by filling in this briefing form.
Get used to seeing the words briefing form because they’re sprinkled over this website like parmesan on a pizza.
I write copy to get attention.
Without resorting to cheesy puns. I avoid them as a roulé.

*dramatic voiceover* This time, it’s personal.
In the old days we were happy reading the back of a bottle of Wash ‘n’ Go.
Now we've got the whole world in our hands.
We’re soooo easily distracted. It’s a wonder you’re still reading this, tbh.
You need powerful, punchy copy now more than ever, to stand out in a sea of AI-generated sludge. If your brand voice is weak or inconsistent, fill in this briefing form. I’ll then get in touch to discuss how we can strengthen it up.
I’m an almost-award-winning Copywriter - I scooped “Highly Commended” at the 2023 WiM Awards. I got it for a tone of voice/verbal identity document, with the judge Vikki Ross saying “What easy reading - which means it probably wasn't easy writing. Mel takes the formality out of what a brand personality and voice is so everyone will feel comfortable understanding and executing the guidance.”
Okay, but what does it cost?
Short answer? It depends. Annoying, I know. I go into things in more detail here.
Spoiler alert, £475/day.

I love writing brand copy, packed with personality. I do have a mortgage to pay though, so I’ll write boring stuff too if you insist. Over a decade in local government means I can slip into a coma-inducing dull tone of voice at the flick of a switch. It’s a party trick with limited appeal, admittedly.
And I enjoy copyediting existing long-form copy. I don’t know why, maybe it’s the power trip or something. Makes me feel like a teacher when I whip out that red pen. Emel me if you want me to shake my head at how bad your copy is.
