      <image:caption>Your words are the gateway to services that improve lives. That’s a big and beautiful responsibility. We work with people like you – people doing big things – to match your words to what you really do. Does your website reflect your important work? Do your reports truly show people the positive changes you make? It all comes down to putting the right words in the right order so your audience can get what they need. It’s all about keeping it neat.</image:caption>

If you’ve got a word-related problem, give it to a professional writer. We’ll take care of it. We make clear, concise original copy and edit with accuracy and speed. We’re trained to create your best: website content plain English copy media releases and other PR materials capability statements and corporate materials final copy with proofreading and editing</image:caption>

      <image:title>Government Writing - Print products</image:title>
      <image:caption>Fun fact about fact sheets: they contain super important information but they can be tedious to read. People often turn off before they get the message. There is a solution. People will read fact sheets if they’re structured right and written simply. Your message will get through. If your information is important enough to be printed on precious paper, make sure it’s picked up. Have it written or edited by a professional. Let’s talk. Promotions Government promos don’t need to be long winded or stuffy to maintain authority and intelligence. Banish dense text to the past. Reach your audience with clear, concise government messaging instead. We’ll make your story shine, whether it’s printed, posted or put on a hat. Get help with promotional products.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Government Writing - Plain English</image:title>
      <image:caption>This is where we excel. Gone are the days of long-winded information on government websites. Today, websites need to be clear and meet some tough readability scores. Does yours need work to meet the Digital Service Standard or the new Style Manual? Do you need help making your content accessible? With a background in government publishing and 16 years’ experience with government agency web content, we’ll get it done. Even the most technical subjects will sparkle. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander audiences We’re specialists in writing for First Nations people. Your plan to respect and uplift Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, whether through a Reconciliation Action Plan, Indigenous employment strategy or other commitment, deserves close attention from an experienced writer. If you need someone to pull your thoughts together into a clear document that highlights your big ideas, get in touch. We can also edit or proofread your copy with a lens for sensitivity along with grammar, structure and the other usual stuff.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Government Writing - Scribing</image:title>
      <image:caption>Get every bit of gold out of the workshop or meeting you’ve worked so hard to run: get yourself a scribe. Let us capture all the key points and ideas from your event so you can focus on facilitating and participating. Once the scribing part is done, you get an accurate, professional report in a style to match your needs. Reports If your report has multiple authors with different styles making it a bit of a monster, don’t worry. That’s normal. But you need to hire a professional writer to review, restructure and make your report flow. With extra special training in editing references and bibliographies, you can feel safe handing over the beast.</image:caption>
