    I've been writing stuff and getting paid for it for...A Very Long Time. In property PR, as a B2B and consumer journalist, in-house in financial services and now as a freelance senior copywriter and content creator. I write simply about complicated things so audiences who know less than my clients do can understand. I know why people read stuff, and why they won't, and I find the story. Copy rarely exists in a vacuum and I'm used to collaborating to put together a package of words and pictures. I try to make everything I write a pleasure to read.

    So, what is it I actually do? I write words. It's not rocket science. I help people say the right stuff to some other people and then...ta-dah! We’re talking professional website copy, slick newsletters, informal blogs, social media content and other stuff in-between. I can create copy with just the right tone of voice that reflects what your company is about. And with a bit of luck (but mostly because of the fabulous words), that means your customers get clicking, following and buying. But words are not everybody's friend. Or time is short and deadlines are tight. I get it. That's where I come in. I'm here to understand what you need to say to the world, and tell your story. Your voice, your language, your way. Why me? As a qualified marketer with over twenty years' experience in B2B and B2C marketing, working across the public, private and charity sector; I have the know-how to write excellent copy firmly grounded in sound marketing principles. I’ve also written copy and features for a whole heap of industries including the NHS, the British Red Cross and the National Childbirth Trust (NCT). So I know how to say the right stuff to all sorts of different people. Plus, with a keen interest in parent blogging, I can tell a good yarn (with a cheeky bit of humour thrown in too, if that's what you're after). So if you need targeted and compelling copy, with plenty of sparkle, then get in touch or check me out on the links below.

    I spent much of my career in sales, marketing and business development roles, so I understand how important it is to focus on the customer in order to achieve results. In the digital age, messages are competing for attention everywhere and it's vital that, to be heard above the clamour, your message captures reader attention using focused content that's expressed in the right tone of voice. To do this takes writing skill and time but will pay dividends. I’ve always loved words and wrote pieces for the student newspaper at university. My first job was as a copy editor with Penguin Books - fantastic training that I’ve drawn on ever since. I was in book publishing for twenty years, mainly in sales and marketing roles, and subsequently started my own business selling books to big brands for promotional use. More recently, I spent ten years as marketing and business development manager with a top twenty accountancy firm. For the last twelve years, I’ve been running my own copywriting business, Results Department, providing copywriting, editing and proofreading services mainly to SME businesses. I work with clients in Thame, Oxford, Oxfordshire, Aylesbury, High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, Berkshire, and West London. Recent projects have been undertaken for clients in sectors such as hospitality and event management, business services, stress and mental health management, and building conservation. I’m also involved in voluntary work in my town of Thame: I write press releases for the Players Theatre (a popular theatre run entirely by volunteers), help promote our guided Midsomer Tours (Thame is a hub for Midsomer Murders filming locations), and I'm a member of the town's Visitor Economy Working Group. When I’m not working, I love listening to classical music and reading, and I’m also a foodie who loves cooking. An important member of the household is our enthusiastic and very handsome golden retriever-poodle cross (groodle) who loves to be taken for walks twice a day.
