If You Don’t Already Know Me…
Hi, I’m Franky, and I live in Bristol in the southwest of the UK.
By day, I run a copywriting business called Love Audrey which evolved from the blog of the same name that I started just over 15 years ago. I’m no stranger to writing online, but I’m new to Substack so I’m still figuring things out and finding my way around. Thank you for your patience while I do my best to embrace being a beginner!
When I’m not helping small business owners communicate with their ideal clients, you’ll probably find me tucked away in my cosy attic-office, surrounded by craft supplies.
Having been a keen scrapbooker as a child, I found my way back to the hobby a few years ago. I’m now well and truly in my craft era, and I want to bring you along for the ride.
