Hello, we’re
The Writer. |

Every organisation uses words.
Which is why it's amazing that most business writing is so boring.
Every boring piece of writing is a missed opportunity:
an opportunity to persuade, to cajole, to touch, to surprise.
But fret not. We're here to rescue you from the tyranny of linguistic
mediocrity.
The Writer does these things.
Brand language. We help define brands,
develop tone of voice and come up with names.
Writing. We write almost anything, find specialist
writers and manage writing projects.
Training. We train people to become more effective
and creative writers at work.

Our Bee's been busy. She's in The Guardian, talking about careers advice (or lack of it) at university. And her 100-word play, ‘One empty cup', is on the Royal Court's website.
