  • Hi, I'm Dympna and I help businesses in Hospitality and Tourism supercharge their website and marketing channels so they work harder and smarter. The magic is in the words. That’s right, I’m calling it. Because the truth is, it doesn’t matter how shiny and sleek your website or marketing campaigns are, if the words don’t land, it’s crickets my friend… With 25+ years in hospitality & tourism, I understand the ins, outs and nuances of our crazy complex industry. All my time spent in sales and marketing means I love getting into the nitty-gritty of communications and selling. Nerdy, I know. I’ve been writing copy ‘officially’ since 2021. My first client was the National Trust for Scotland, only the country’s largest heritage member organisation. So no pressure! Since then, I’ve been privileged to write for luxury hotels and venues, visitor attractions, and HIT Scotland as well as booking platforms, digital marketing agencies, the press and media. Don’t mince your words. Make money off them. I'm here to help. Let's talk dympna@dympnamckenna.com

  • I turned freelance in 2022 after many years working in internal comms, writing everything from corporate news articles to leader blogs, HR processes and social media posts. Working for a large financial services provider, I quickly became familiar with the UK pensions and savings environment, plus a wealth of HR/colleague engagement topics including recruitment, reward, wellbeing, and diversity, equity and inclusion. Previously I worked on tone of voice, ensuring a consistent experience for customers across all corporate comms. Oh, and I've also edited dictionaries - so I'm a bit of a word geek. I'm open to all types of work, but I'd particularly love to work with ethical and sustainable brands focused on health and wellbeing, food and drink or parenting and family life. As well as copywriting, I offer copy-editing and French-English translation.

“Find out what you like writing about and go all-in.”

“I am at my best in the morning, so I try to schedule all creative tasks before lunch. If I’m struggling in the morning, I use the classic strategies of changing where I’m working from, taking a break, or exercising in the hope of a Eureka moment.”

Declan Morton, Copywriter.Declan Morton

“I’ve always enjoyed writing but I didn’t set up on my own account until 2019. At that point I had been teaching for nearly two decades and had become frustrated with the academy trust to which my then school belonged. I took a plunge and set up as a freelance writer.”

Jo Watson

“I wish we were all more honest when speaking to newer or younger copywriters and telling them what to expect in their career. It’s a hard job, it’s constantly evolving, and it’s still nowhere near as widely respected (as both an art and a science) as it should be.”
