Biographical Note
We write from home, so you don't have to!
Writing is time-consuming. You need time away from telephones, emails and co-workers to make it work. To take a morning off to write or edit important brand material costs a lot more than outsourcing the work to us.
By writing at home we can offer you rates that don't include overheads, travel time or coffee breaks! Whether you're a large and busy agency that needs to free up your staff for doing what they do best, or a small business that needs something written for the local paper or customers, we can deliver at short notice and around the clock.
We specialise in the arts (music, books, films), tourism, food and wine, property and fast moving consumer goods. But we love variety, and we have experience in almost every industry - from telecommunications to transport, campervans to pharmaceutical drugs, so we welcome anything new.
Editorial stories include travel and lifestyle articles for the Weekend Herald and Herald on Sunday, as well as various parenting and online publications. See below for some of our articles up to early Sep 2011. More can be viewed at www.nzherald.co.nz or for my PR writing see www.thewrightpress.comTravel and tourism, food and wine, pharmaceuticals, fashion and beauty, music, books and films, laughter yoga and yarn bombing, telecommunications and campervans, gardening and motorways - you name it, we've probably written about it. And if we haven't, we'd probably like to!
