Your freelance writing partner for clarity and compliance.

Hello and welcome! I'm Sally Johnson, a freelance business and technical writer with a passion for purpose. 

I develop and edit high-quality documentation mainly for non-profit and public sector organisations. Hire me and you hire a writing partner who brings experience from well-known names, including Greenpeace, Oxfam, Philips, and the United Nations Development Programme. Work with me, and your purpose becomes my purpose.

See my LinkedIn profile for more background information.
Contact me to discuss your writing project.

My last two nicknames were "the glue" and "the caterpillar". I'll tell you why when we talk.
