What people are saying
“Ruth is a fantastic copywriter and a real asset to our team. She helped us with both content writing and assembling the newsletters for ProCopywriters - which are sent to our 950-ish members, as well as many emails for our Copywriting Conference, which are sent to around 20,000 inboxes. Ruth is super-reliable, consistent and easy to work with. Ruth was also very patient when dealing with my rambling briefs - and I appreciated her clear-thinking and creativity that she brought to our projects.”
— Leif Kendall, Director of ProCopywriters
“Ruth is quirky and clever with a hunger for creative adventure. Always keen to learn something new, she throws herself enthusiastically into the more playful projects and shows determination and diligence with complex technical work. Her insatiable curiosity, love for language and easy-going nature makes Ruth a wonderful copywriter to work alongside.”
— Sandie Hampson, Creative Director at Write the Talk
“Ruth’s work is clear and concise, and often fun. She has the ability to turn complicated, dull subjects into light, pleasant reading. Trust me: we worked in life insurance together! Her work gets to the point, quickly, and you enjoy the journey. Even when given a very ‘brief’ brief, Ruth is creative and will often deliver a piece of writing that is not at all what you expected, but exactly what you need. Having worked with many copywriters over the years, there are few that are truly good at what they do, who can cut through the jargon and deliver clear, well written copy. If you want your audience to actually read your content, no matter how dry the subject matter, then Ruth would be a great investment.”
— Serj Hallam, Freelance PR Consultant
“It was a real pleasure working with Ruth on the Pharmica animation. She brought a lot of her creativity, professionalism and expertise to the project making it a fun process. Working in a copywriter and art director team, we worked together to build the story and narrative. She applied a lot of creative thinking, brainstorming and of course, writing. Ruth very quickly and succinctly solved the issue of explaining a complex problem in its most simple form making it easy to understand. She makes it look effortless! After working with her on this animation we’ve continued to collaborate together.”
— Tom Bartlett, Motion Designer
“Ruth is an exemplary copywriter, with boundless creativity and an incredible talent for finding the perfect tone and style in a very short amount of time. She's got tact and a fantastic writing style – direct, witty, and to the point, while still making artful use of the English language to best communicate the message she's sending.”
— Mitch Pike, Freelance Copywriter
