KMOver Katie
If you’re looking for words that work harder for your business — whether that’s copy that converts, content that inspires or microcopy that guides users seamlessly through your digital product — you’re in the right place.
I’m a copywriter, editor and content strategist with over 20 years’ experience crafting words for some of the world’s most recognisable publications and brands. My career spans top-tier journalism, in-house editing at award-winning magazines, copywriting for global companies, and UX writing for digital platforms. What ties it all together? A deep belief that great writing is what makes everything tick.
So if you need words that do more than fill space, copy that makes people stop scrolling, lean in, and engage, content that captures attention — whether that’s an editorial feature in a glossy magazine, a homepage tagline, a product description, or the fine-tuned UX copy that moves your users through a journey without friction – I'm your girl.
The Types of Projects I Typically Handle
- Website Copywriting: From homepage hero lines to detailed product/service pages.
- Content Strategy & Tone of Voice: Helping businesses define how they speak to their audience.
- Blog Articles & Thought Leadership: SEO-friendly, engaging pieces that position brands as experts.
- UX Writing & Microcopy: Clear, concise text for apps, SaaS platforms, and websites.
- Copy-Editing & Proofreading: Ensuring your existing content is error-free and publication-ready.
- Brand Campaigns: Headlines, slogans, and scripts that align with your brand’s core message.
- Long-Form Content: White papers, guides, and editorial features.
- Books & E-Books: Development, editing, or ghostwriting for larger projects.
