Commissioned Writing

Some stories deserve to be written down properly: an organisation’s milestone, a family’s history, the people behind a place. I write commissioned pieces for organisations and families who want their story told with care.

What I write

  • Commemorative and anniversary publications
  • Organisational histories and profiles
  • Family histories and legacy books
  • Feature articles and long-form profiles

How it works

We begin with a conversation about your story and what you need the finished piece to do. I then send a proposal with the scope, timeline and fee. Most projects involve interviews, research and several rounds of drafts, so you can shape the work as it develops. I can also recommend trusted designers and printers if you need a finished printed book.
