“Nikki was kind, patient and made the classes so fun, I can’t thank Nikki enough for putting the love of writing into my son, he also loved the class and can’t wait to come back!”

“Nicola encourages the children to think about things in different ways and to be more creative and descriptive in their writing style.”

“You have really inspired her to write and create stories. She was very taken with your book the Time School.”

“Nicola listened to and understood our wish to evolve our message along with our brand. Her copy was always succinct, accurate and grammatically correct and we were able to upload it to the new site without significant revision.”

“I commissioned Nicola to write my company’s website, as well some media and press releases. I’ve been very pleased with all the projects she has done for us, as she understood exactly what we needed with minimal supervision and involvement from us. I have found her whole approach very professional from the onset.”
