“With persistence, creativity and passion I believe all editorial copy can be sprinkled with a little stardust”

Hi, I’m Debbie Oakes, a storyteller specialising in writing evocative content about everything from global destinations and experiences for newspapers, magazines, tourism boards, SMEs and start ups for B2B and B2C clients.
I write editorial that makes people pay attention.
Copywriting, blog posts, website content, brochure copy, white papers and feature articles (SEO-optimised, naturally) should bever be boring. Your business – large or small – can generate more traffic (and sales!) by tantalising taste buds, inspiring emotions and opening the heart and mind to your brand.
Editorial
In my roles as chief editor of both Expat Life Magazine and Insider Asia Magazine I was key in rebranding, motivating and managing writers, commissioning and developing story ideas for the luxury market in order to generate more leads and advertising sales.
