I write words that tell your non-fiction story.
If you don't have the time or the ability to do that, I can help.
I don't work in hourly rates, so don't assume that hiring me means writing me a blank cheque. You'll know exactly what it will cost, and I'll show you how much it will be worth to you. I've demonstrated hundreds of thousands of dollars in value to my clients. You could be next.
By the way, I have a dream to write a book similar in style to David Blaine's book in 2002 that leads to a hidden treasure. If that interests you, I would work for free with you.
It's as simple as that. If you have a non-fiction story to tell, a feature you want to brag about, or a goal in mind, and you want actual humans to read, enjoy, and take a specific action, let's chat.
Feel free to ask about my incredible family pancake recipe as well. I won't give it to you, but you can always ask. It's pretty amazing.

Enthusiastic, energetic, creative, (and slightly dramatic) 29 year old female ready to read your books aloud, be the voice behind your company, or provide a variety of voices for your characters! I also happen to be very good at one-liners if you need a slogan or jingle of any type.
Whilst my professional experience may be slim, I have a clear voice with plenty of quirks and unique qualities. I am very witty and quick with my jokes (I will out-pun your dad on any day of the week), and have been encouraged by a number of people to create a profile to share my skills!
I have a long history in music and singing professional gigs, particularly with a group called “Prodigy” in my home town. Led by a professional music producer and composer, I have been encouraged for years to pursue voice acting, due to my abilities to make noises that others in this group could not. A long-time lover of attention and the stage, I have also been repeatedly told to pursue stand up comedy.
I am a performer by nature, and would love to be able to apply it to my professional life! Currently a full time server/artist, I am constantly showcasing my personality at my job, through my art, and with my music. I have an AT-2020 microphone in my home to record music and voice work, so I can work from anywhere.
Please let me know if you are interested in any collaboration, and I would be more than happy to show you what I can do!

Every business has a story worth telling. Most just don't know how to tell it yet.
That's where I come in.
I'm Sohail — a copywriter who's spent the last decade helping nonprofits, startups, agencies, and small businesses turn their mission into words that move people to act. Donors give. Investors lean in. Readers stay on the page. Subscribers open the next email.
I combine deep copywriting craft with AI-powered research and production, which means you get strategic, story-driven content faster and at better value than a traditional writer — without losing voice or quality.
I don't just write. I think about what your audience needs to feel, believe, and do before they take action. That's the difference between copy that reads well and copy that actually performs.
What I do best:
📊 Pitch Decks — Investor and stakeholder decks that tell your story with clarity and purpose, not just pretty slides.
💌 Donor Letters & Fundraising Campaigns — Emotionally resonant appeals that connect donors to your cause and drive real giving.
📬 Newsletters & Subscriber Content — Personality-driven newsletters people actually look forward to reading. Not corporate. Not boring. The kind that builds a loyal audience and keeps them opening every week.
🎬 YouTube Scripts (Sports) — Narrative-led scripts paced for retention, written to match your channel's voice and keep viewers watching till the end.
🎯 Landing Pages — Focused, conversion-driven copy built around one goal: getting your reader to say yes.
✉️ Email Sequences — Story-led campaigns that nurture, engage, and convert over time.
📝 Blogs & Long-Form Content — Research-backed, SEO-informed articles that build authority, rank on Google, and actually get read. I've written thousands across industries.
🏷️ Brand & Campaign Storytelling — Helping you articulate who you are, why it matters, and why your audience should care.
Why clients keep coming back:
⭐️ Expert-Vetted — Top 1% on Upwork
⭐️ 100% Job Success Score across 87 completed projects
⭐️ 1,600+ hours delivered
⭐️ One client called me *"the best writer on Upwork"*
⭐️ Most of my clients have come back for more — that's the part I'm proudest of
Tools & approach:
ChatGPT • Claude • Qwen • SurferSEO • Grammarly • Notion • Google Docs • WordPress • Trello • Slack • Asana plus a brain trained on ten years of reading what works and what doesn't.
If you need copy that tells your story and gets results — a donor appeal, a pitch deck, a blog strategy, a launch campaign — let's talk.

Hello! I am a Scottish born Canadian, a professional storyteller, and a freelance writer/researcher. Although I have covered many topics, local history, genealogy and true crime are my passions.

I operate a small business dedicated to family history research, video script writing and other history related products. I am a published playwright and dramaturg for a local theatre company. Looking forward to working on your project!

I'm a creative and driven writer and stand-up comic from Ontario, Canada. I've been pursuing my passion of comedy for over six years - featuring for some of Canada’s top comedians, headlining local events and festivals, writing screenplays, and Directing/Producing short films. My films have been accepted into multiple film festivals, and my screenplays are ranked highly on leading industry websites. In addition to film, I've been expanding into new media and animation.
As a comedian, word economy is the game. Keeping the audience locked-in and laughing, with no wasted words. This "trimming of the fat" has brought me success in all my writing. Respecting the audience's time; translates into engaging content across all genres.
Comedy was just my "foot in the door". I’m a storyteller at heart, and each new medium provides an opportunity to be creative and connect with an audience in a new format. I'm looking to branch out and freelance as an opportunity to dive into new projects and grow whilst helping others create exciting and engaging content for their projects.
