Tom in a few words
I write *advertising copy*. Words that sell products, services, or ideas.

My work is punchy and precise. If you need complex stuff made simple and engaging, get in touch.

I have a sideline as a comedy writer, so I can also be funny. My comedic style appeals to both the under-10s and urban, liberal intellectuals; think Mr Silly-meets-Heidegger. If I've lost you there, then we probably can't work together (I can also do reverse psychology, BTW).

On a serious note: I'm particularly interested in tech, education and health.

*Please note*: My focus is ad copy. I don't do landing pages or newsletters.

I also don't do anything that involves animal cruelty, weapons, wrecking the environment, or tobacco.

Background: experienced creative director with clients worldwide, now focusing on writing after many years of producing content (mostly video & animation) for tech companies, big brands and financial institutions.
