GHOSTWRITING

Commissioned to write the Greenfingers Garden Guides, I more than most appreciate the effort it takes to write and edit great copy and can assist you in your ambitions. Whilst much of my writing is garden related, I hugely enjoy working on other lifestyle projects and work as a ghostwriter for industry experts and personalities to create an elegant expression of their work. Privacy is often an issue and I’m happy to sign NDA’s so we can work securely together.

More about Lucy

A passionate advocate for the beauty of the natural world, Lucy’s career has taken many turns—waitressing, fashion modelling, and TV presenting—but her love for nature and storytelling has always been at the heart of what she does. Now, she writes both fiction and non-fiction from her home in the countryside, surrounded by trees, vibrant plants, and birdsong that inspire much of her work.

Between writing deadlines, Lucy is a voracious reader with a love for historical fiction and shares her expertise through hands-on workshops in writing, gardening, and creative floral design — all designed to inspire others to connect with the world around them. Whether weaving nature into her stories or cultivating it in her garden, Lucy believes in the transformative power of the great outdoors and happily ever-afters.

TESTIMONIALS

Lucy is a very driven lady and she has been a joy to work with, whilst always keeping me in the best of moods. At times it was almost impossible, especially when I had so much on my mind and I needed to switch off in order to focus on the book. Lucy did a very good job in having immense patience and understanding when working with a dyslexic and sometimes moody person; you have to be very good at choosing the right moments and then giving huge amounts of encouragement which is why we have now successfully finished this book. Lucy, I cannot begin to thank you enough for all of your patience as well as your sense of humour as without it, I would not have produced this, my second book.

We are so happy that we found Lucy and feel fortunate to be benefitting from her impressive depth of horticultural knowledge and insight. Lucy’s content is a joy to read; rich, inspiring and written with such care and consideration of the organisational tone and objectives of our e-commerce business.

Lucy is an absolute pleasure to work with! Her knowledge, flair and creativity lead to wonderfully crafted articles for our website. Communication is always prompt and deadlines always met. I couldn’t ask for more, she’s a true professional.

Lucy Summers won out because she effectively showcased her depth of knowledge, both in terms of the subject matter and the challenges faced by specific sections of retailers. Her engaging writing style pulls in her readers and holds their attention – it is both provocative and colourful.

I have worked with Lucy for a couple of years now and she is an incredibly engaging, experienced and insightful communicator. Its been a positive experience to get gardening content that really engages with our readers.

Lucy is a brilliant freelancer. Thoughtful, creative and to the point. Lucy, it was an absolute delight working with you and, once again, thanks for the great copy!
