Highlights
|
I have over 20 years experience in writing, personally and professionally. I write fiction and non-fiction, reports, manuals, articles, guides, poetry, and essays.
I have had several works published, including poetry written in high school, ghost written articles for web magazines, short stories, and my self-published debut novel is available in paperback and eBook format, and is doing very well.
Several pieces of my work have been awarded, including prompt contests on large writing websites, poetry contests, and writing contests in college. My works have been showcased for students and for the larger internet audience. I have been contracted to write for others, and have never had one complaint.
I believe that I excel in writing because I enjoy it so much, and would love to put my skill to good use.
Samples of my writing can be found at http://www.booksie.com/Sabrina_Bourque.
