What I Do

  • I’m excited to offer my copywriting services to anyone who needs something written. My experience is broad and wide-ranging. I’ve written everything from hard news and history articles to wine reviews and screenplays. I pride myself on being able to adapt to all sorts of topics and audiences. I love writing about my passions, yes, but I enjoy tackling something completely new, because it means I get to learn along the way! Check out the ‘Services’ and ‘Past Work’ pages of my website to learn more.

  • Need your article to strike a particular tone? Media release not quite hitting the mark? Novel in need of a new perspective? I’ll help! I also have experience editing professional magazines, so if you’re after guidance on how your publication should look and feel, I can help with that too.

  • Sometimes, after hours staring at words on a screen, it’s easy to miss an incorrect spelling, capitalisation, or space. That’s when you need a fresh pair of eyes. I’ve proofread many an article, essay, and social media post, and I’m very comfortable doing it, so I’m more than happy to be those eyes.

Who I Am

Hi there! Thank you for not only clicking on my website, but for scrolling down slightly to get to the bit where I tell you a bit about myself. It means a lot.

I’m Peter Burt, and I write. I’ve loved writing ever since I was tiny. That love led me to graduate from the University of Tasmania with a double major in journalism and English, and a minor in creative writing. Since then, I’ve written for magazines, newspapers, government organisations, non-profit organisations, and more.

My services are open to whoever wants to use them. I’m a Nipaluna/Hobart freelance writer who is incredibly excited to develop his writing career. Don’t be afraid to say hi!
