WORDS AND IDEAS

logo

I’m an experienced copywriter. I use words and ideas to help brands or businesses talk to the world.

I work in branding, sustainability reporting, point-of-sale and moving image – often providing the great first lines that spark communication projects into brilliantly effective life. I also teach people, including other writers, to improve their words and ideas.

Everything I do, I do with passion and in partnership with other communicators. I believe in the power of collaborative creativity.

That’s why I’m not just Fraser Southey, but always &fraser. That’s why the most important words on this website come from my clients and colleagues.
