About

Hi - I'm Lisa, author of The Freelance Fairytale: How to Create Your Happy Ever After.

I wrote The Freelance Fairytale as the book I wished I'd had back in 2018/19 when I felt like I was stuck in a rut with my business with no idea how to get out of it.

Fortunately, I managed to get the right help and support and I transformed my business. Now, I help other freelancers do the same.

The Freelance Fairytale Newsletter is named after my book and contains tips, advice and observations on freelance life.

You'll receive an email from me every Monday where I'll share whatever's on my mind plus a ten-minute task for you to complete that week. Each task is designed to help you make some small improvement to your marketing or your business.

I also share a web-only post every Wednesday. The most recent will be listed at the bottom of your emails or you can find them all on the home page of this site.

I try and offer as much free support and advice as I can through my emails and blog, but if you'd like something a little more hands-on, I offer group support and one-to-one mentoring.

And if you're interested in learning about my business journey (the good, the bad and the ugly), you'll find my warts and all story here.

Surviving 11 Years In Business

In April 2014, I hit send on my first freelance project. And I sent my first invoice. And I had no idea where my business was heading. Or that I’d be writing about it eleven years later.
