Well, that’s pretty much it for Lpt for 2023. As a freelancer, I’m fortunate (by choice) to be able to hit pause as needed throughout the year, while remaining accountable to my clients, and other responsibilities. Buuuut, like most people, I’m looking forward to hitting pause on work until… early Jan?! Contrary to the words […]
Client: Thiess Rehabilitation Brief: Award submission writing. Not gonna lie, it was a pretty hectic time at Lpt HQ, given it was awards season, coupled with the general end-of-year busyness.

Little pink typewriter – and therefore, Lpt HQ – has moved! Pretty exciting news, really. While I haven’t moved far, and I primarily work remotely with clients across Australia / around the world, and the move won’t impact my work – or clients – it’s exciting because I’ve moved to my favourite suburb in Perth: […]
I love working with graphic designers. Here’s why. It recently occurred to me that while I (obviously) do a lot of writing… I also regularly collaborate with graphic designers and/or web developers to deliver a content project / product. It started way back… when I was first writing copy on a boxy old Macintosh! Yes, […]
Sometimes things don’t go to plan. That’s life. But that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t talk about them – or only talk about successes. So I thought I’d share this case study for a project that didn’t quite go to plan, but, in a way, was still worthwhile… Client: mining company Brief: award submission about their […]
