About Me
“To write eloquently is a talent, to speak directly to the core of an issue is a gift.”
I’m Richard Gilzean
Storyteller
It began with a comment from one of my university tutors many years ago.
“Your writing style is humorous and muscular.”
The feedback struck a chord with me. Humour in storytelling just works; whether it’s Jane Austen’s Mrs Bennett bemoaning what is to become of her daughter Elizabeth; a TEDTalk going viral, or a ranting Cartman from SouthPark.
Muscular writing is focused and goal-oriented. As someone who enjoys CrossFit workouts, Yoga tune-ups and long-distance bushwalking, I understand that a writing workout requires words that do the heavy lifting, ideas that breath and stretch the imagination, and stories that take us on a journey.
Thanks for stopping by.!
Who do I write for?
I write for individuals, big and small companies, printed publications, blogs, and websites. Those that look for quality, imagination, humour and speedy content.
