About Me

Image by Mikaela Jade.

As a writer with over 10 years' professional experience, I can help you convey your business' message to your audience in a way that is simple and digestible, while being informative and engaging.

I began my career as a journalist, first as a freelance writer for local magazines while studying for my degree in English, then, after graduating with honours, I became a full-time editorial assistant at a luxury lifestyle magazine, before progressing to content writer, then deputy editor at a national hair and beauty title.

Following this, I decided to take the path to become a full-time freelance writer. Since 2017, I have worked with independent businesses, agencies and influencers to create content that captivates their audiences.

Why employ me and not ChatGPT?

I believe we have a moral obligation to keep a human element to business. Your audience is human, so what better way to connect with them than with a human writer? I can write (good) humour; I can make obscure references to nineties pop culture; I can talk about an experience or product in a way that elicits a visceral response from the reader, allowing them to connect with your brand in a way that can't yet be facilitated by AI.

I'm also a brand geek. This means that, when we work together, I become a fan of your brand. From the ins and outs of your audience, tone, style, genre, to graphic elements such as the use of imagery, typography and colour palette, I commit to understanding your branding just as well as you do. This helps me tailor my writing style to fit your business.

Experience

I have worked with a number of different content management systems in a range of formats. The CMSs I have experience with include Wordpress, Blogger, Webflow and Squarespace. I also have experience with Substack, Mailchimp, Shopify, Podio, Trello, Later, and a range of other platforms. I can also learn new software quickly, and adapt to your business' needs.

I have experience writing B2C as well as B2B, in the sectors of: fashion, beauty, lifestyle, travel, pet care, horticulture, psychology, gynaecology, rheumatology, recruitment and human resources.

If you have any questions, please contact me at jenloumeredith@gmail.com

I hope we can work together!

Your summer 2017 essentials



Summer's approaching fast. Just today (in glorious May), I felt myself getting a little too hot in the office, and the holiday daydreaming started to kick in. Unfortunately, as it happens, I'm probably not going to go on holiday this year as I'm trying to save money - so I'll just have to limit my use of social media (to escape those pesky Insta-vacay-snaps) and hope that the English weather will be enough to at least make me look like I've just come back from a weekend in the French Riviera.

 In case the weather does hold out, and I somehow manage to catch a tan whilst standing at the office water dispenser by the window pretending to fill up my glass, here are the fashion and beauty items I'll be purchasing this year:



Festival hair Rings, Johnny Loves Rosie, £12

 Pop these in your plaits for an instant style update.


Matte Yellow Anorak, New Look, £34.99 (Get 25% off until 22.05.17 - no code required)

 Because it rains in England. A lot.


Nelih Sandals, Moda in Pelle, £79.95 (Get 20% off until 21.05.17 with code MAY10)

 Pair these with a tan and you're golden. Literally.
Flute Sleeve Poplin Shirt, Miss Selfridge, £32

 This bell sleeve trend ain't going anywhere.


Grey Jersey Frill Hem Shorts, Nobody's Child, £14

 Who doesn't love a cute pair of shorts when it's too hot for jeans?


Bette Printed Playsuit, Reiss, £195

 Pricey, but that tropical print is oh so worth it.


The Activist Body Oil, Mio Skincare, £29.50

 Literally the best body oil I've ever tried.


Ivory Pineapple Print Sundress, Dorothy Perkins, £20 (Get 25% off during DP VIP week - no code required)

 Pineapples + anything = a happy Jen.



Did you know Dior made a Luminizer? Neither did I. But I need it.


1 Piece Orange Bathing Suit Dary, Pain de Sucre, £104.90

 No guarantees you'll look like Halle Berry emerging from the water in James Bond, but you'll rock it either way.
