Hello! I'm Barney Wright. I'm a creative content writer, editor, and learning designer.

Originally from Fife in Scotland, I now live in Sanford, Central Florida with my wife, two daughters, mini-bernedoodle, and guinea pigs. My interests include exploring the great outdoors, golf, table-tennis, politics, history, literature, meditation, good food, and craft beer (sometimes all in the same day.)

My services include: copywriting, blogging, scriptwriting, item writing, content editing, copy editing, content strategy, learning needs assessment, competitor analysis, ghostwriting, web content, SEO optimization, localization, prompt engineering, AI training.

I have dual US-UK citizenship and am equally comfortable working in American or British English. I'm always interested in discussing new projects and ideas that challenge me and help me grow as a professional, so feel free to get in touch!
