Highlights
|
|
During my time
as a student at the University of Iowa, I took several writing courses
at the world-renowned Iowa Writer's Workshop. A Bachelor's degree in
Women's Studies and Religious Studies, with a minor in English, has
contributed to a well-rounded career as a freelance writer. I work
with my clients to produce intelligent, informed pieces to meet their
writing needs.

I provide writing, editing, and data entry services to a number of individuals and companies, and enjoy working with clients to produce unique, effective pieces specific to their requirements.
My writing style is quite versatile, and my main areas of proficiency are as follows:
* Business Writing - Search engine optimization (SEO) articles and marketing pieces are my main area of service. I regularly work on press releases, business forms, and web content. My experience in this area includes pieces on fitness, health, technology, beauty, humor, ergonomics, nutrition, insurance, and dating.
* Creative Writing - I love working on creative projects such as fiction stories, poetry, online blogging, product and media reviews, erotica, ghostwriting, and lifestyle and entertainment pieces.
* Academic Writing - I spent four years in school researching topics and submitting them for professional review, so I am quite familiar with academic writing style. My work in this area includes literature essays, research articles, study guides, eBook writing, how-to guides, and other instructional materials.
* Editing - My editing services include proofreading documents for errors in punctuation, spelling, grammar, and sentence structure.
* Data Entry - I am quite experienced in composing event, media, and product descriptions and submitting them to online databases. |

Work Terms
|
After being awarded a project, I will develop a Project Plan that maps
out specific due dates and payment terms. I am a full-time freelancer,
so I have the time and energy to offer prompt delivery and competitive
rates. I require a 50% deposit before I begin work. Payments processed
through Guru Escrow will have a 10% fee added to them, as that is the
percentage that Guru charges me for use of that service. Payments
processed through Guru Invoicing have no extra fee.
My rates are based on an hourly wage, and I charge $20 an hour for all projects. This fee includes all of the phone conferences, interviews, writing, editing, revision, and research necessary to complete a given assignment. I place bids based on what I estimate to be the total amount of time I will spend on a project.
I
am available from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM (Central Time, GMT -6) to discuss
project changes and expectations via phone, MSN and Yahoo Messenger, or e-mail. Please note that I request that any and all information about a given project be submitted before
work begins. I offer up to 2 sets of revisions, but these are standard
edits, not re-writes. I can only work with the information I am given,
so if I am asked to completely rewrite a piece, then project details
were not adequately communicated to me in the beginning.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions regarding specific project quotes. I look forward to working with you!
