About

Writing, Ghostwriting & Editing at Reasonable Rates! I am a university-educated Canadian with 30yrs accumulated knowledge in a wide variety of fields, now living in sunny Jamaica!

My first venture into writing was to adapt children's stories into scripts for a Children's Theatre company, 30yrs ago! From then I went on to write speeches and correspondence - business & personal - for a union leader/businessman. Writing has been a primary component of my many (MANY!) jobs over the years - the part which I typically enjoyed the most. I have now honed my craft to the point where I can write/edit convincingly in the "voice" of others, or alternatively, in the manner they WISH they could communicate. I recently came full circle by ghostwriting a musical script, and realized I need to pursue writing and only writing/editing full time!

I am fortunate to be blessed with a thirst for knowledge and new challenges. I am have both technical and creative sides and can succinctly be described as a Renaissance Woman. My general skills and experience range FROM: theatre (script writing & editing, acting, stage management and directing); visual arts; cooking; sewing; working with children/youth, seniors and persons from a wide range of ethnic backgrounds TO: marketing; branding; social media; e-commerce; internet and computers (Microsoft Certified); teaching; fundraising; event and general organization; management of organizations and companies.

My successful Writing/Editing projects have included: Advertisements | Applications | Business Proposals | Catalogs | Educational Pamphlets | Eulogies | Event Schedules and Programs | Forms | Funding Requests | Letters of Appeal | Marketing Content | Magazine, Newspaper and Newsletter Articles | Political Speeches | Press Releases | Product and Company Information Hand-outs | Product Descriptions | Resumes | Service Directories | Songs | Surveys | Technical Documents | Theatrical Scripts | University Thesis | Web Content.

If your subject matter does not appear here, take heart! I am also a good researcher and can teach myself most things I need to know.
