WE ARE BRILLIANT FISH

It’s a big ocean out there for writers and you have to be fairly colourful to stand out from the shoal!

Like many authors, I was wary of the world of marketing and social media, yet I knew I had a project which deserved a wider audience. Liz has really helped me wrestle with this and gradually I’ve got a better grip on options; now complete strangers are reading my work. As well as guiding me through those first months of boot camp, she’s proved an invaluable ally, someone to bounce ideas off - a professional who has the skills I lack, but whose ethical values I share.

Gill Oliver

Liz has been working with me for the best part of two years now and has completely transformed my company’s presence on social media. Liz is a dab hand at writing accurate copy for websites, creating press releases as well as building social media content for me that reach my intended audience and have maximum impact. She is sympathetic to the needs of my business and how I want it to grow and has been able to adapt the way she works to accommodate this. Liz is very professional and is a joy to work with.

Amy Brenan

I have worked with Liz for many years in many ways. Liz has helped me to understand how to market my business. How to clarify my approach and asks me the questions I have forgotten to ask myself. Working with Liz has been such fun and I have learnt so much. The difference between in my approach to writing my book is so different now, that I have nearly finished the first draft. I cannot recommend Liz highly enough and if you are ready to write that book, then Liz is the person you should talk to first.
