'I have worked with Tony and Linda on a number of projects, over the years, spanning book writing and editing to reports and press articles. They are consummate professionals not only in terms of turnaround times but the quality of the work produced is top drawer. The thing I love most about working with them is their ability to question the brief to deliver an even better outcome. That’s where they truly add value.'

Testimonials - what others say
We were in need of a compelling corporate brochure which told the Maurice Blackburn story and explained our legal services in an engaging yet easy-to-understand way. We were thrilled with the work Express Editors produced. Linda Vergnani actively engaged with all key stakeholders to ensure she had all the information she required to produce an accurate and intelligently written document. Fantastic result!”'
Sarah Corry, National Brand & Internal Communications Executive, Maurice Blackburn Lawyers
“Tony's editing training was the soothing balm that our fast-moving Agile content team needed to feel confident and more in control. Considered, erudite and gently entertaining, his workshop gave us the chance to brush up on our weaknesses, revisit our strengths and spend a whole delicious day unpicking the nuances of language to a make sure we're doing the best job we can.”
Libby Varcoe, Director, Content, Digital Transformation Agency
“Tony’s Boost your business writing skills course was informative and quick-paced. It took you from the basics of spelling and grammar through to the art of convincing writing. Tony’s passion for the principles of writing has raised the bar in the way that I structure my written communications. Whether in an email, report or written submission to a client, my focus on the structure, the content and the little things like the semi-colon has been honed. My writing has become more efficient, concise and flowing.”
