Allison Wharley
Freelance Writer in Queensland, Australia
Welcome! I’m Allison, a freelance writer with - in case the photo doesn't give it away - loads of life experience.
You know those people who go into apostrophe-shock every time they read a cafe menu? I'm one of those people.
Can I help you with a writing task? My favourite assignments include:
- Content writing (blogs, social captions etc)
- Proofreading
- Copy editing
- Content repurposing (eg creating a blog post or handout from your video)
- Product descriptions
My skill set includes functional SEO and digital design. I'm comfortable with Canva and have worked with blogs on Wix and Wordpress.
Aus/UK English is my first language and I will happily switch to US spelling if that suits your project.
Would it warm the cockles of your heart (and warm your audience) if you hire a writer with real knowledge and experience in your field? I have a broad comfort zone because I love to learn. My fields of experience include:
- Medical/health - I'm also a physio so I'm comfortable with medical terminology and know how to interpret research. I'm particularly well-versed in women's health topics. (Note: if you want creatively deceptive hyperbole to sell snake oil… sorry, I'm busy.)
- Nutrition, holistic health & wellbeing (It's not all snake oil!)
- Rural lifestyle and agriculture, particularly cattle.
- Yoga and dance (Tap dance is therapy and should be available on prescription.)
- Tarot
- Art & Crafts (I've won a state knitting trophy from the CWA, I kid you not.)
- Fiction - I love sci-fi and fantasy, and held membership of the Romance Writers of Australia for many years.
That's quite a long list and it could be longer! I'm also interested in vanlife, hiking, travel and more. Contact me to find out about my experience in your field. You can also find me on LinkedIn (I'm blessed with a rare name so I pop up in searches easily!)
