There are many things we believe in: a Star Trek future, the power of dance, and the value of having a copywriter in your corner.

  • “Ellie & Cruz have been an absolute joy to partner with over the years. After our first briefing meeting, it was clear that they were exceptionally talented and refreshingly professional."

    Juliet O'Halloran

  • "I cannot overstate just how much of a relief it has been to find copywriters I can rely on to deliver a brand’s core messaging in a way that is both relevant and enjoyable to read."

The perks of being human

We started TQWC in 2013 because we like people and we like copywriting. Some copywriters are lone wolves, content to tap away in their in-house writing caves, but not us.

We’re pack animals who live to roam—and we found our work had more edge and impact when we could meet, greet, and speak before writing.

Today, our clients are our compadres. They know we’re only a quick message or phone call away and we’re part of their pit crew.
