KEEN TO WORK TOGETHER?

Let’s get rolling.


How may I assist?

Spend more time doing what you love (and what YOU are great at) - and handball those pesky words to me! I’m more than happy to chat about any project you need help with.

  • Need a news story, feature article, case study, an ‘explainer’ or a how-to piece? With more than 20 years’ experience in the media, I’m ready to nail your brief - or provide you with a list of customised story ideas. I can also work as a commissioning editor.

  • Got an annual report, impact report or some other kind of document that needs going over with a fine tooth comb? I’m here to spot those typos and grammar mistakes, while making sure your report also flows smoothly.

  • Keen for a new ‘about’ page for your website, or need a bio for LinkedIn or an upcoming conference? I’ll help get to the heart of your story, and write a sparkling bio that suits you down to the ground.

  • Becoming a freelance writer is an exciting career choice, but can also feel overwhelming and financially precarious at times. Want to sharpen up your pitches or writing style, find new publications to write for or become a digital nomad? I’m here to help.

  • Want regular, high quality blog posts to feature on your website? Or case studies that show off your brand, and can be used across multiple marketing channels? Let’s chat to discuss your needs and ideas.

  • A beautiful website is one thing, but if you want to attract new clients or customers, your words also need to sing. I’m here to edit your (definitely not ‘you’re’) website, and make sure everything is shipshape.

  • Having worked for years as a journalist and editor at some of Australia’s best publications, I know what editors - and journalists - are looking for. If you want some non-fluffy PR advice from a trained journo, please get in touch.

  • From weddings, to milestone birthdays and wedding anniversaries, I can help you write a funny or thoughtful (or both!) feature story commemorating the occasion - which may become the most treasured present of all time.

Kind words from clients

  • "In sporting terms, Larissa is a 'triple threat'. She writes with sparkle and wit, subs with a keen eye, and has the experience and smarts to produce stories in the digital environment."

    Steve Colquhoun, writer and former Executive Style editor at The Age

  • "A skilled, capable and highly professional journalist, Larissa writes with engaging style and edits with a clear understanding of digital audiences. She’s an enthusiastic self-starter brimming with ideas."

    Craig Dixon, senior producer, ABC

  • "I thoroughly enjoyed working with Larissa! She came into my team on a short-term contract and hit the ground open and willing to learn (very complex information) fast. She's able to tackle any topic and produce high quality pieces."

    Rachel Ung, marketing manager, Monash University

  • "Larissa is an outstanding media adviser, she has the ability to take complex information, often with multiple stakeholders, and turn it into must-read copy. And above all, she's just a delight to work with."

    Sue Smethurst, media and communications manager (formerly at Monash University)
