Copywriting & Storytelling
Tailored for Musicians & Creatives.
My nameโs Tapobrata (people just call me T.L.) and I offer my services as a freelance writer on this site. If youโre looking for someone whoโs a native English speaker, respects your deadlines, is transparent and up-front in his work ethic, and just loves writing, I might be your person.
For over a decade now, my day job as a professional musician and podcaster has had me write professional copy that converts.
So what started off as the odd favour to friends, is now a thriving business I love, lets me work remotely when on tour, or spending time with my family in different corners of the world.
I grew up on three continents and four countries, speak five languages, and have the privilege of a truly global and compassionate lens.
I also have a Masters Degree from the University of West London that required some very thorough research and writing skills.
(And since weโre bragging here, you might also be interested to know that I can roll my tongue and wiggle my ears).
And that I also drink LOTS of coffee.
Some of my past clients have included:
๐ Cyber PR Music, Brooklyn/NYC (Top 10 Music PR firms, USA)
๐ The Local (Germanyโs most widely read English blog)
๐ UYD Media (NYC).
I also host a podcast that includes a roster of guests the likes of
๐ NY Times Bestselling author/Pianist Kenny Werner (Effortless Mastery)
๐ 8-time Grammy Award winner Benny Rietveld (Miles Davis/Sheila E/Santana)
๐ Founder of Cyber PR Ariel Hyatt
๐ Partner at Collective Entertainment Emily White
As well as health experts like
๐ Ryan Hurst (GMB Fitness)
๐ Cameron Shayne (Founder of Budokon Arts)
๐ Steve Maxwell (100 top trainers, Mens Health Magazine).
Interactions with experts in their field like the ones above add an entirely different dimension to my own writing and creative pursuits when I collaborate with a client.
The expertise and skills they give me are more than just academic degrees, and come from the lions mouth.
Some of my favourite areas of specialization are:
๐ Podcast Notes.
๐ Blog Posts.
๐ Artist Bioโs.
๐ Editing long-form documents into a more concise and engaging format.
๐ Striking a balance between โprofessionalโ and โprovocativeโ.
๐ Writing newsletters people look forward to and enjoy reading.
๐ Technical writing.
I'm based out of Europe's creative hub, Berlin and work remotely from multiple parts of the world.
I've been juggling time-zones since I was 9 years old, so the lifestyle is one that comes naturally to me.
But this is all my take and you shouldn't take my word for it.
So please go read some testimonials, have a look at my portfolio or get on a quick call to chat (no strings attached).
I'd love to be of service to you!
