Freelancer for Hire: Carly Bush

Freelance Writer + Copywriter

📍 London, ON, Canada 

Over the course of my twelve-year career in copywriting, content writing, ghostwriting, and social media marketing, I have collaborated in-house for major brands and worked independently for small businesses alike, helping to maintain existing brand messaging and establish new voices. Currently, I am a regular contributer to Collective World, an offshoot of Thought Catalog, where I share my knowledge in personal development through an astrological and spiritual worldview.

Additionally, my work has appeared in several notable digital travel and lifestyle publications, independent literary journals, and print magazines. I write short stories and poetry for Vocal Media. I am a 2023 graduate of the Curtis Brown Creative Writing Your Novel program and am currently querying my first novel.

I provide a variety of copywriting, creative writing, and editorial services to clients at all stages of their careers.

MY FAVORITE KIND OF PROJECTS

My ideal copywriting client is a small, woman-owned lifestyle and wellness brand, or an it girl influencer in this space. I thrive while working for passionate, humble yet hardworking individuals who value and champion intentional community, spiritual growth, and practical self-development. 

My ideal ghostwriting client is a creative individual with integrity whose life has followed an unconventional path to success and who now wishes to share their wisdom with the world in the form of a memoir---or a novel inspired by their own story. I love working with clients who are willing to share their vulnerabilities, open up, and tell their stories with authenticity and accountability, inspiring others with their dogged persistence. I love the classic rags-to-riches story. Even if you do not feel as though your professional and personal life has followed a linear narrative, I will weave the hills and valleys into a memoir that reads like truly compelling fiction.

LOOKING FOR long term + short term projects 

I CHARGE hourly, retainer and per project 

ABOUT ME I’m a dog person who loves pasta more than pizza, bagels more than croissants and definitely a coffee person. Prefer shopping at a local bodega over an overpriced Erewhon. And I’m a night owl.
