Projects
- QuotemarksA collection of 5 bookmarks each printed with an illustrated quote to inspire you whilst page turning. This project came after hearing a quote from the master of speed reading, Jim Kwik. Jim says to use a marker to follow each word whilst we read, this can speed up your reading by 25-50%. As humans, we instinctively follow motion, so using a finger, pen or marker under each word we read enables us to keep our focus.

- Juliet Bailey PilatesI have practised Pilates for the last twenty years, so when the incredibly strong, serene and stylish Juliet established her own Pilates practice I was thrilled to be invited to write a biography for her about page. We began with a special class, just Juliet, me and my mum, in my parents' newly carpeted living room in Haye, the sleepy town close to St Ives in West Cornwall where Juliet teaches. As Juliet stretched our minds and bodies I paid attention to the language she used and noticed her use of metaphor, continuous tenses and sensory adjectives. After the class I worked with Julia Denni and Becca Allen, the talented team behind Many Mavens, and the wonderful photographer Lizzie Churchill to align Juliet's verbal identity with her visual style. Hey presto, a beautiful site that tells the story of Juliet's passion and skill for Pilates. https://www.julietbaileypilates.com/about/
