Investment: Initial consultation £150. Follow up calls: £100.
Book below and via my Calendly here.
Build a newsletter you love writing and open yourself up to opportunities.
Newsletters are one of the few assets you own, not rented land. Intimate – a 1:1 connection and a conversation yet scalable. The engine of your business and you get to help a lot of people at scale.
Substack is built for organic growth – still the best way to build a real audience that feels connected to you. Play with powerful publishing tools and get inspired by a vibrant, collaborative community.
Whether you’re a solo creator or a brand, I’ll help you turn your letter into the most fun—and fruitful—part of your business.

Async Writing & Publishing Support via Voxer.* For one week, you can send me voice notes, messages and drafts.
You can use it to work on:
• Your Substack Hero / About post – the compass for your content planning (here’s mine);
• A key newsletter / blog post / book development (beta reader);
• Audience-building. Nail your Notes strategy or collab with me on a Substack Live or guest article swap.
What you get:
• Async feedback throughout the week (I check Voxer regularly during office hours GMT—you work on your time);
• Editing, structure, and strategy support;
• Fun, friendship, collective solidarity.
Latest Voxer Week: helping a freelance journo launch a local news blog on Substack; plus guidance on social media publishing “in these crazy times.”
Investment: £300
*Voxer is a free messaging app that allows you to send audio, text, photos and videos securely – unlike WhatsApp you don’t have to share your number.
Big thank you to the fabulous Amanda B. Hinton, for inspiring me to try a new way of working.
Brand Partnerships
I partner with brands that fit the ethos of my newsletter and inspire me. My approach is collaboration and curated content development.
I’ve been mentoring journos at the NUJ & City St George’s, University of London, writing blogs for The Portfolio Collective, Media Voices, and the Digital Creator Association, and helping the Media Society launch on Substack.
