What the Word Junky can do for you…

Copywriting

Clear. Purposeful. Audience-aware.

Good copy is not about volume or decoration. It’s about knowing what you stand for, who you’re talking to, and exactly how to reach them.

Every client sounds different. That’s the point. I work across sectors to shape messaging that feels intelligent, credible — and unmistakably theirs.

Services include:

  • Press releases and announcements
  • Thought leadership and long-form content
  • Corporate communications
  • Website copy and sales materials
  • Business proposals and reports

Every project begins with clarity of objective.

Every sentence earns its place.

Sector Experience: Marketing & Advertising

I have developed particular depth within the marketing and advertising arena, writing:

  • Agency ranking announcements
  • Awards communications
  • Executive commentary
  • Roundtable summaries
  • Masterclass programme insights and summaries
  • Articles exploring culture, industry trends, credentials and client relationships

This sector demands nuance. The audience is informed and sceptical of hype. Sharp without loud, informed without jargon — that’s the precision I bring to every brief, whatever the sector.

Copyediting & Proofreading

Precision strengthens good ideas.

Alongside copywriting, I provide senior-level copyediting and proofreading to ensure your work is clear, consistent and publication-ready.

 Copyediting includes:

  • Clarity and precision
  • Smooth tone and natural flow
  • Consistency in language and style
  • Grammar and punctuation polish
  • Light fact-checking

If you’re using AI tools, I’ll make sure the output sounds like you — not like a machine trying to sound like you.

I also support clients whose first language is not English, ensuring your writing communicates exactly what you intend, with nothing lost in translation.

Proofreading

A final, detailed review before publication, checking:

  • Grammar
  • Punctuation and spelling
  • Typos
  • Repeated or incorrect words
  • Minor formatting inconsistencies

Rates

All work is quoted per project based on scope and complexity.
Retainer arrangements are available for ongoing support.

If you’re looking for quick and cheap, I’m probably not your person. If you want it done properly, let’s talk.
