Amelia Furlong
@ameliafurlong
Creative copywriter and ghostwriter crafting engaging, marketable narratives and SEO copy.
What I'm looking for
I am a creative copywriter, editor, and ghostwriter with 4+ years of experience and a self-starter mindset, having built a freelance business serving diverse clients including two high-capacity digital publishers, entrepreneurs, and artists.
I ghostwrite full-length novels at high volume—producing two 60,000–80,000-word novels every six to eight weeks and 17 titles in the past 12 months—collaborating closely with editors and responding to feedback and line edits within 24 hours to deliver marketable, reader-focused narratives.
I also development-edit and copy-edit across genres, often delivering 20,000-word manuscript sections within 48 hours, and I design and teach novel-development classes that consistently sell out; previously I created high-volume, SEO-optimised storefronts and B2C content for a major publisher while adapting voice and tone to varied audiences.
