About Me

Jeebers on a bike, anyone who’s anyone has to have a website these days - it’s just the done thing innit?

So here I am, doing my thing.

A native Buckinghamshirean, I’ve been working my word magic for almost 10 years. Before that I sharpened my skills as the in-house magazine editor for a large national company, flipping its reputation from zero to hero in one issue.

These days I write a whole load of stuff, for a whole load of peeps. From compelling web copy to enticing editorial. In a nutshell, I give good word.

When I’m not tip-tapping away creating my wordy goodness, you can find me doing my other favourite things; walking my bonkers Boston Terriers in the park, grubbing in the garden or explaining things to my nine-year-old, such as dogs don’t eat Haribo.

In short, I love what I do. I love words.

And if I’m any good at my job, you’ll love them too.

To chat copy, please get in touch.

 
 
If God were human, and a copywriter, and lived in Buckinghamshire and was - on rare occasion - mildy amusing, she’d probably be Melissa Blamey. Hire her.

Experience

With over 20 years' experience of writing for online and print media, I'm an expert in delivering clear and compelling copy.

I've written for a leading UK copywriting agency as well as writing for some of the UK’s best known brands, magazines and newspapers.

Oh, and for those who want to see proper credentials, I graduated from Leeds University with a BA (hons) in English Literature*.

*The School of English at Leeds University is one of the top rated English departments in the UK, so that makes me a proper clever-clogs at spellings and full stops and stuff.

 
Melissa Blamey will never amount to anything.
