White paper writer

White paper writer

A white paper is a persuasive, authoritative, in-depth report on a specific topic that presents a problem and provides a solution.

Marketers, for example, create white papers to educate their clients or audience about a particular issue, or explain and promote a particular methodology. 

Our professional process for determining what you need written, and undertaking the writing, involves:

  • Initial briefing;
  • Further research;
  • Drafting and submission of the first draft;
  • Evaluation and integration of up to two sets of revisions; and
  • Submission of the final draft.

 

Hobart horticultural report writer

Arrow Green

Do you love your garden, but don’t have a clue what’s growing in it?

We can help!

  • We visit your property then write a report that identifies native and exotic plants, and what should stay or go.
  • We suggest alternative plants to fill spaces and treatments for any plants that are diseased or affected by pests.
  • We devise an ongoing maintenance schedule.
  • We have 30 years experience working for landscape architects, architects and ecologists.

In addition to teaching landscape design at a tertiary level, Catriona worked as a horticulturalist in plant nurseries for over ten years and now regularly write for garden journals such as Garden Drum, so she knows her plants!

E-book Writing, Ghostwriting + Developmental Editing

E-book Writing

 An E-book is a fantastic way to deliver in-depth information about your business, give you credibility and deliver readership.

I can research, structure, draft and edit E-book text for you.

Ghostwriting 

Ghostwriters are hired to write fiction or non-fiction in the style of an existing author, often as a way of increasing the number of books that can be published by that author.

I can assist with writing a book for you, if you feel you are way out of your depth. Let me help you shoulder the burden of releasing the ‘book in you’!!

Developmental Editing

In the role of Developmental Editor I guide an author in conceiving the topic, planning the overall structure, and developing an outline, and support the author in their writing, chapter by chapter. 

Developmental Editors provide specific suggestions about the core intentions and goals of the book, the underlying premise, the polish, narrative voice, pacing, style, language; that is, the literary art and key arguments of the book.

Developmental editors do not correct spelling and grammar, or compile the index. These are the jobs of a copy-editor/proofreader and indexer, who work much later in the writing/publishing process. [I also provide these services, if required].

Landscape and cultural heritage writer

Landscape and cultural heritage writer

Catriona’s experience as an educator, landscape designer, historian, and horticulturalist gives her a diverse suite of skills applicable to landscape, heritage and cultural projects. We can assist you in researching and drafting documents, such as:

  • Landscapes of Cultural Heritage Significance: Assessment Guidelines;
  • Heritage assessment and reports;
  • Conservation Management Plans;
  • Advice to and support of groups involved in Natural Heritage Trust and other community-based projects, with a landscape or garden focus, or in collaboration with a Heritage Architect;
  • Planting and landscape maintenance reports;
  • Horticultural assessment — removal and replacement of species; and
  • Site interpretation and value studies.

 

 

Environmental + Sustainability Researching, Writing and Editing

I research and write in the fields of sustainability in design, urban design, sustainable tourism, sustainable timber use, environmental sustainability, landscape architecture and planting design/strategies.  I specialise in the following:

  • Drafting scoping surveys and literature reviews;
  • Identifying and assessing  endemic, native, exotic and weed species, and vegetation types;
  • Drafting Environmental Impact Statements;
  • Editing scientific reports;
  • Drafting weed management strategies; 
  • Drafting bush regeneration strategies;
  • Reports on the viability of sustainable tourism proposals;
  • Vegetable, and native edible food, garden layout and design;
  • Strategies for networking and collaboration, and harnessing social media;
  • Assistance in development of appropriate tools for raising awareness in order to foster community engagement; and
  • Community grant funding applications.

I understand highly technical material, such as raw data and scientific literature, and restate it in a clear and concise way. I analyse and interpret data obtained from literature reviews, research, and sample findings and communicate clearly with the public and other stakeholders on focused environmental incidents or broad environmental patterns.

For example, see my online articles in Sustainable Gardening Australia on weed invasive species here and native invaders here.

We love the big picture challenge of structuring and drafting plans, of any type.

We do the research to help you make decisions about your business including structure, marketing strategies and finances.

We assist in determining for whom you are writing the plan. We understand it is a long and often slow process, with many reviews, protracted stakeholder involvement and re-writes … but we will help you get there.

Blog + Website Writer

I love to write blogs (see some of my own here) and website content!  Before I start to write, my goal is to understand you and your audience by asking questions like:

  • What do they want to know about?

  • What will resonate with them?

My aim is to generate content that elevates your blog from generic stuff, to the targeted text your audience really wants (and needs) to hear.

See a few examples of blogs I’ve written for my clients  here.

Hobart story + family history writer

Do have a story to tell?

Do you need help to write your family history, personal narrative or do family research?

Many people begin a family history because they want to ensure their family stories are preserved for future generations. Often stories start with a photo, a news clipping, a painting or a family anecdote.

Let us help you with this precious project!

We would love to thread together your story into a book, album, chapter, newsletter or website. We will retain your voice, but help you to structure a coherent argument or storyline. We can also give you tips on researching archives and tracking down family ancestors.
