I have experience in both academic and creative writing and can offer a range of writing based services.
I will usually quote a fixed price for a writing job which will vary depending on the specific requirements, with half the fee payable up front and the other half on completion of the work.

Academic Writing Support
Are you applying to university to study on a health or social care related course. Find out how to write a great personal statement and ace your interview (from a previous admissions tutor).
Are you an undergraduate OT student or returning to postgraduate study in healthcare?
Do you feel bamboozled by academic writing?
If so I can provide support with understanding assignments, structuring work, academic referencing and developing critical thinking.
I won’t write essays for you but I am happy to proofread or challenge thinking through questioning.
Creative Writing
