Testimonial:

A mutual acquaintance referred me to Mary for help with establishing myself as a freelance feature writer. As a journalist I had the writing skills, but neither the knowledge nor confidence to market those skills. We live at opposite ends of the country so spoke by ‘phone: I still refer to the notes I took that day.

Mary explored my areas of interest, my strengths and my objectives, and encouraged me to see that in seeking outlets for my work I was offering professional skills, not asking for favours. She gave me lots of practical advice (setting up a website, making that important initial contact, negotiating fees, asking editors for PDFs of my work, etc) but, just as importantly, Mary gave me confidence in myself. I would not hesitate to recommend her as a mentor and guide. Betsy Everett, freelance journalist
