Testimonials

I approached Kelsey when faced with the overwhelming and daunting task of updating our website content. I knew my business inside out, but what I really needed was a word expert who could turn my knowledge into great copy. The result was very positive. An effective and efficient communicator, Kelsey asked all the right questions and quickly developed an understanding of my needs and expectations. Kelsey was creative and clever with words and she put forward suggestions and ideas I would never have thought of. Importantly, Kelsey respected my input, so when all was complete I felt it was, in a way, my own words. Now that is clever! Best of all Kelsey knew how to put it all together using correct grammar and punctuation. My weakness! Thank you Kelsey!

Kelsey is a true professional. She has proofread a number of my assignments and assisted me with my graduate placement applications. I am constantly impressed with her command of the English language and eye for detail, which has helped me express what I was trying to say with logic and clarity. The turnaround at Kelsey Writes… is fast and efficient and I have found the service invaluable in not only maintaining my sanity, but also being a massive time saver. I would highly recommend Kelsey to anyone!

Kelsey is a smart, sharp, sassy writer. She works well to deadlines and is always up for a challenge. Working with her on the Street Reads project was so much fun, she’s a great person to bounce ideas around with.

– Lee McGowan, Brisbane City Council Street Reads Project

The effort that Kelsey put in to creating fabulous words for my family’s business blogs and social media profiles sparked an increased amount of views and more booking enquiries. A unique talent!

It’s rare to find talent & passion coupled with a gregarious personality. Meet Kelsey. We worked together on a summer project internship for NICTA at the Edge, Brisbane and it was a rare example of group-work that really worked, in no small part, due to Kelsey.

Not only did her work amaze everyone, but Kelsey was a real morale-booster throughout the summer. Her professionalism is matched only by her personality. I’ve followed her work since and I’m happy to vouch for Kelsey as a writer with passion, flair, heart, insight and with the true ability to captivate her clients/readers.
