The Who


My name is Bernie and I’m a Writer, Creative Director, Blogger, Campaigner and Mother, not necessarily in that order of importance.

I have 15 years of experience as a copywriter in the advertising industry (and more than double that in the industry of life, eek). I’m also a lecturer, speaker and honesty-addict, keen to leave some kind of positive mark on the world, however small the dot.

In the pursuit of health, happiness and purpose, I decided to break free from full-time agency life last year. As my family is now complete, it seemed like the right time for a business baby and so The Salty Pen was born. I describe it as a down-to-earth venture, offering a variety of writing and consultancy services, with a special interest in projects that matter.

So far, this baby isn’t keeping me awake too much at night, but maybe that will change with the next growth spurt!
