You get what
you can’t pay for.
I am not a reasonable person.
Exhibit A: I spent four long years at engineering school, only to become a writer.
But, hey: if you wanted rational, predictable words, you could have a chatbot — I’m sorry, a reasoning model — spew them out for free.
Instead, you can have a thinking, feeling human solve your problems with empathy and imagination. With words that move other humans.
Someone who’ll spend sleepless hours obsessing over what you say and how you say it. (And won’t even bill all the said hours out of sheer embarrassment.)
A writer who’ll give your words far more fucks than you pay for. More, even, than you yourself might give.
That’s the kind of unreasonable bargain you can’t put a price on.

Self-explanatory, I know. But sometimes words are more form than function.
For brands big and small, across sectors deep and wide — with teams who’ve taught me everything.
