Mark in a few words
I am a London-based copywriter and editor with 30 years of experience working with a client base of more than 200 companies, organisations and individuals including BBC, Ministry of Defence, Sunday People and Centrica, along with charities, SMEs and startups.
My words create an impact in brochures, annual reports, magazines, blogs, press releases, speeches, advertisements and on all social media outlets. The hallmark of my sub-editing services is a zero-tolerance approach to errors in grammar and syntax and fixing inconsistency in register where different stakeholders are involved in writing copy.
My extensive portfolio includes writing press releases, SEO-friendly web copy, editing books, creating brand names and straplines, writing an award-winning audio drama for BBC Radio 4, sub-editing on two national newspapers, providing companies with writing style guides and devising English examinations for NATOofficers. I am also a regular on the open-mic comedy circuit with my one-line gags. However large or small the brief, I regularly exceed clients’ expectations in delivering and editing copy, and I always meet deadlines.
