Intelligent Features was founded by Natasha Courtenay-Smith, a journalist with ten years experience in the writing of individual, personal and often emotional stories for magazines and newspapers.

We all know that telling your story to the national press can meet a deep-seated need, yet at the same time, it can also be a nerve-racking experience. What if your words become misconstrued? What if you end up appearing in a magazine you don't even like? And what if your reputation suffers as a result?

We will guide you throughout the entire process, creating something that will provide the rewarding experience you seek, telling your story in the way you'd like it to be told, for an appropriate fee.

We'll be able to advise you, first of all, whether you have a story that would appeal to any part of the press, and which publications might be interested in featuring it. We'll interview you and write your copy. We'll manage your contracts and ensure you receive any payments you are due. And we'll help you deal with any further interest you may receive from other publications and television programmes.

We have a large network of contacts across national newspapers and glossy magazines, so we'll also be able to get you the best deal and the best coverage.
