Who do I work with?
I am a copy editor and business story coach, passionate about personal growth and people’s stories. I work predominantly, but not exclusively, with business owners working in well-being.
Many of my clients are NON-NATIVE ENGLISH SPEAKERS with businesses in the UK. Their spoken English is good enough to get by but their written English often lets them down. My clients have included a Ukrainian life coach, a Lithuanian neuroscientist, a Belarusian jewellery designer, an Austrian psychotherapist and a Romanian yoga school.
I also work with NATIVE ENGLISH SPEAKERS, those who readily admit that grammar and punctuation are not their strong points and would much rather focus on what they do best and leave the i-dotting and t-crossing to a professional nitpicker like me! It gives them peace of mind, and that’s worth paying for – they tell me.
How have I helped my clients?
“Tracy has done an excellent job copy editing three research reports (ranging from 30-130 pages each) for the Quality of Life Foundation. Given that we often have multiple authors writing reports, it has been extremely useful to have her attentive eyes review these to ensure consistency of tenses, language/writing style and tone, as well as overall readability. We often work on tight timescales, so I have especially appreciated being able to rely on Tracy to turn things around quickly and thoroughly. Her comments and suggestions have always been helpful and straightforward, and it is always a delight to work with her.”
TIFFANY LAM, Research Manager, The Quality of Life Foundation.
“Tracy is a fantastic copywriter and editor. She helped us both with our website and product descriptions. Working with her is the best thing we did for our website. It’s as if Tracy has a magic wand while she is working with words! She is also a very calm and friendly person who is very knowledgeable in what she does.”

What do I blog about?
When I’m not too busy editing and writing for clients, I write my BLOG STORIES. These are anecdotal pieces exploring the things I’m most passionate about: well-being, personal development, spirituality, happiness, humour, love and relationships. It’s a place where I share my stories, insights and inspiration … and interacting with readers who are touched or amused by these is profoundly fulfilling for me. So if you enjoy my posts, go ahead and make my day – add a comment and a rating! Here are a selection of my MOST POPULAR BLOG POSTS. Voice and spoken word have always been a thing for me so you will find AUDIBLE versions of many of my posts at the top of each page.
