FREELANCE COPYWRITER
Blurb
I'm Rowan, a freelance copywriter from Leeds. I started my career writing copy in-house for charities, but went freelance 2011, in order to take a more diverse range of jobs (and after discovering it was better paid.) I've since racked up nearly a decade's freelance and agency copywriting experience, writing everything from product descriptions for a stone cleaning company to front-page features for The Guardian Weekend Magazine.

Writing witty, chatty, engaging and informative content for female audiences is my forte. But as long as it involves words, and the order in which they need to be typed, for optimum results, I'm in.
