When you engage me to work on your project, what are you getting for your hard earned cash?
Well, I’ve been doing battle with the protracted musings of senior public servants, lawyers, entrepreneurs, police and teachers since 1971. In that time you pick up a trick or two. Trained in Pitman’s shorthand in those halcyon days when offices were offices, not just spaces crowded with computer screens and IT aficionados, I wrestled with the tortured, disorganised thoughts of my employers and forged them into an acceptable form for the printed page. I wrote news stories for a regional newspaper and press releases for a family tourism business.
Those skills, far from being redundant, are more critical than ever. The adage; “if you want the job done properly, leave it to a professional” is more apt than ever. You need only look at the declining standards in our usage of English on the internet to realise that the skills I can offer, are more essential than ever.
Never forget the written word (your written word in fact), is your introduction to your readers. How do you want them to see you? Suave, sophisticated, confident and above all, professional? The pittance you will pay for my service will ensure that this is precisely the impression your clients will gain when they read your work. Forty years of word smithing, hammering drafts into acceptable submissions, preparing proposals, letters and reports, is my guarantee that you will be amazed at what I can do for your projects.
By the way, it hasn’t been all just see and do. I also hold qualifications in ‘Proofreading and Editing’, ‘Certificate II in Education’, ‘Written Communications’, ‘Academic Essay Writing’ as well as other subjects, and studied for a Preparation for University Programme last year.
