About Me

Hi! I’m Sophie Butcher, and I’m based in London. I’m a freelance writer, providing both commercial copywriting and digital marketing services to brands, as well as editorial work – which includes personal writing as well as film and TV criticism.

My writing can be found on publications including EMPIRE Online, Huff Post UK, Jumpcut Online, Flip Screen, Screen Queens, One Room With A View and The Film Magazine, and I am currently available for commissions, shift work and podcast appearances. I have also been part of EMPIRE’s mentorship scheme, working with Deputy Online Editor Ben Travis to continue developing my writing skills.

I also have a Substack newsletter, ‘Growing Pains’, in which I send out a personal essay from time to time. Read and subscribe to it here: https://growingpains.substack.com/
