I've got words, fonts and images and I'm not afraid to use them.
I am a New York Times Bestselling author who has been writing professionally since 1989 when my first science fiction story appeared in Analog Science Fiction magazine. Since then I have authored nine novels with traditional publishers (Random House/Del Rey, Baen, Harper-Collins/Eos, Pegasus) and five eBooks with Book View Cafe, an alternative small press of which I am a founding member. I balanced writing with a "day job" until 2005 when I went to freelance writing and editing full time. I also design book covers and interiors—please, take a look at my portfolios.
I was nominated for the John Campbell Best New Writer award in 1990 and my works have been finalists for the Nebula, British Science Fiction, and Sidewise (alternate history) awards, as well as being anthologized in several “Best of” anthologies.
In addition to writing under my own byline, I have ghostwritten and edited novels, memoirs, trade books, how-to books, and screenplays. I also have run writer’s workshops and performed instructional editing for clients who wish to learn the craft of writing. In addition, I blog on subjects from writing to science and religion at a variety of blog spots, including mayabohnhoff.com, BookViewCafe.com/blog, and bahaiteachings.org.
Work Terms
I am flexible in my schedule, so work hours are as needed. I have worked with all of my clients long-distance via virtual meetings, messaging and email and prefer online communication because, as they say, "If it's not written down it doesn't exist."
I prefer working for an hourly rate, but am willing to work out different payment plans, including an advance with milestones, but I've found an hourly rate is fairest for me and my clients, because I get neither underpaid nor overpaid for my work.
