giving shape to what you want to say

Writing and Content

Copywriting and editing for businesses, artists and writers who know what they want to say and need it said well.

I listen first. Then I write.

Jess

Copy that sounds like the clearest, most considered version of your own voice. Your audience recognises you in it, and so do you.

I ask a lot of questions. Not just the obvious ones. I want to know your story: where you hesitate, what you find difficult to say, who you're trying to reach and why it matters to you that you reach them. I listen for what drives you, the moments of conviction and the frustrations, the vision and the doubts in equal measure. Everything you tell me shapes what I write for you.

The work, and where it can take you.

Website copy

Full website copywriting and content audits. Every page written from scratch in your voice, or your existing copy reworked to meet who you are now.

Social, email
and launch copy

Social media, email marketing, landing pages and launch material. The words that keep your business visible and moving.

Blog content

Written from your ideas, developed through conversation and positioned to show the depth of what you know.

Brand Voice Guide

A practical reference for how you sound across every channel, to share with anyone who writes for your brand or represents it.

Artist statements and exhibition copy

For creators and practitioners who need their work described in language that does justice to both the work and the thinking behind it.

Biography and
personal statements

How you are understood in your field and your unique value is the central question. Academic applications, professional biographies, personal statements.

Press, print and editorial

Announcements, press releases, brochures, correspondence and editorial copy, written from scratch or edited. Writing where the tone, the pitch and the facts all have to hold up.

Creative editing

For writers who need a reader as much as an editor. Poetry, fiction, literary non-fiction. I work in service of your vision, not mine.

Proofreading

Closer to the page than editing, and less attached to the text. The final stage before anything is printed or published, from manuscripts to web copy.

Timeline

Every project has its own pace. A website rewrite, a book manuscript and an artist statement are different in scope and rhythm. Once we have talked and I understand what you need, you'll have a clear timeline before work begins.

Pricing

Fees are based on the scope of each project. Once I understand what you need, I'll send you a clear quote, so you know the cost before we start.

The first step is just a conversation.

01.

Send me a message and I'll get back to you to shortly.

02.

We set up an introductory call to meet each other and for you to explain your project. No obligation.

03.

If there's a fit, I'll lay out the next steps and what to expect.
