I'm offering

I am a London-based poet and creative writer looking to complete freelance work alongside my University studies for my Bachelor of Arts in English and Creative Writing. Having published 75+ short stories online with an audience of over 200,000 readers, I have extensive practice in writing to a specification, writing stylistically, and proof-reading. I am a bright and friendly individual with a lot of drive to produce the best content possible for my clients. For my entire life, I have been involved in all manner of creative arts, from music production and composition, to theatre performance and crafts and so I am knowledgeable of many of these areas, and am able and willing to write on an even bigger variety of topics.
