Writely So

A Virtual Showcase

I write about whatever interests me and have included a selection of pieces here as a showcase of my own work. More than anything - with this blog as my tool - I am trying to bridge the gap between my love of writing and the growing need for content on a digital platform.


If you have any copy needs, or want to discuss some ideas, please feel free to get in touch on my 'Contact' page.

Writing about Teaching and Learning - The Differentiation Charm

Writing Non-Fiction - A sample foreword from my book:
"Fish and Chips - No Ham"

This is the foreword for a book I am currently working on about my experiences of working in pubs, bars and restaurants from my late teens into my early twenties. It is tongue-in-cheek and written in an informal conversational style; intended to be humorous, anecdotal and painfully relatable.

Writing Creatively - 
A Character Background

This is a short piece of creative writing - a character back-story written for a fictional character that I designed for use in a campaign of Dungeons and Dragons.
It is imaginative and fantastical, and merges my passion for story-telling with my love of role-playing games.
