About Grant Doyle

With the Master of Arts (Creative Writing) finally completed, I’m back crafting and teaching best-practice digital content that takes into account design thinking and usability principles, W3C guidelines, web and mobile writing conventions, user research, clients’ strategic aspirations, customers’ expectations and addresses search engine optimisation (SEO).  And any requirements for translation or localisation come standard. I call myself a content designer.

Digital Content Writing

My writing output could be anything from web/mobile copy, eDM, all things social, ghost blogging, video scripts and story boards, and UX microcopy to native advertising features, white papers, bid documents, infographics and more. Find out about doing it ‘write’ digitally via content design, content strategy and content marketing.

Presenter and educator, Australian Writers’ Centre

Apart from developing writing style guides and customised digital content workshops for corporate clients, like WestpacOrigin Energy, NSW Parks and Wildlife, QantasDepartment of Defence (Canberra) and Micros, I also conduct a range of business and digital writing courses at the Australian Writers’ Centre.

Travel writing

Post-grad studies

One of the final semesters of my Master of Arts degree was spent as a full-time university exchange student in The Netherlands. A travel blog – Our Man in Amsterdam – with links to Flickr albums, kept track of the experience.

Volunteering – Habitat for Humanity

A few years ago I participated in a volunteer program to build basic housing for poor and displaced villagers in rural Cambodia. Organised by Habitat for Humanity, 17 volunteers from around the world meet up in Battambang (near Siem-Reap) to lend a hand in anyway we could. Check out this video overview of the humbling experience.
