Content that sounds like a person wrote it.
I write and edit for companies: web copy, landing pages, email, scripts, articles, and the voice guidelines that hold it all together. I've written in-house for brands and on assignment for national outlets, so I can match a voice you already have or build you one.
What the work covers
Most of it falls into a handful of buckets. If what you need isn't on the list, ask anyway.
Web copy
Homepages, product pages, about pages. The words that carry your site.
Landing pages
Campaign and launch pages built to say one thing well.
Newsletters, sequences, and the one-off sends that actually matter.
Scripts
Video, audio, and stage, written for the ear rather than the eye.
Articles
Bylined features and blog pieces, reported when they need to be.
Voice guidelines
A style sheet your whole team can write from.
What a project looks like, start to finish
We scope it
We start with a call or a short doc: what the piece is, who it is for, and what it needs to do. You get a fixed price and a delivery date before any writing starts.
I dig in
I go through your material and interview the people who know it, when the piece calls for it. Facts get checked here, not after.
You get a real draft
A first draft written to the brief, in your voice. Not a pile of variations for you to sort through and stitch together.
We tighten it
Two rounds of revision are built into every project. You mark it up, I rework it, and we land on copy you are ready to publish.
It ships
Final copy in whatever format your team works in, with a short note on the choices I made if you want the reasoning.
Executive ghostwriting
Some of the best writing goes out under someone else's name, and that's the point. I ghostwrite bylined articles and thought leadership for executives and specialists: the tax partner, the founder, the head of a practice. You bring the expertise and about half an hour of your time. I turn it into a piece an editor will run and your peers will actually read.
The byline is yours. The work reads like you on your sharpest day. The tax explainer in the portfolio below ran this way, under the named partner who supplied the expertise.
The AI draft, made human
You've got a folder of AI-generated drafts. They're structurally fine and completely lifeless. Send them over.
I check the facts, cut the filler, fix the tells, and rewrite until the copy sounds like a person on your team wrote it, not a robot. With the influx of AI slop out there, readers spot the difference in a sentence, and so do the search engines. It's the fastest way to get usable content out of a tool you're already paying for.
Priced per word, at a lower rate than writing from scratch.
