Freelance Writing
As a freelance writer with a wide range of capabilities and several years of experience in writing and blogging, I am able to provide high-quality articles to feature on any travel site, magazine or blog.
I have co-authored the Lonely Planet Devon & Cornwall guidebook, written hotel reviews for the Telegraph, worked as a contributing author on four books, and written for a number of online publications.
“Emily is an absolute pleasure to work with. She’s professional, reliable and efficient and turns around high-quality content quickly. Emily has that wonderful ability to write copy that is factual and informative with a friendly and interesting tone. She can easily adapt her tone to suit different styles of writing and always seems to understand exactly what I’m looking for.”
