WRITING SERVICES & CONTENT CREATION
As a freelance writer, travel content takes up the majority of my time, however, I have written emails, app content, website content, corporate video scripts, business proposals, magazine articles, Facebook posts, blogs, music video treatments, television promos, brochures, roadshow scripts and press releases. My experience includes an animated feature film treatment, a documentary about a church organ and a number of articles and columns written for different travel publications. For South African readers, I also managed to complete an episode of Tswelopele Production's Top Billing (flighted in November 2013) without using the word 'palatial' even once!
I often work for international clients. As a native English speaker located in a Third World country, the exchange rate enables me to provide quality content at a First World standard at an affordable price.
