Summary

Quality matters. You only get one chance to make a first impression, so choose wisely.

The average reader looks at your material for 30-45 seconds - or less - before deciding whether or not to read it. If you can't establish yourself as professional and knowledgeable in that first glance, you don't stand a chance of getting your reader's attention long enough to convey your message. With all the competition out there - if you don't do it right, somebody else will.

I will work with you to deliver quality content that captures your reader's attention - and keeps it. I'll help you develop a professional, authoritative message that establishes you as the go-to source in your field.

If you want a low-cost content factory; that's not me. If you're looking for a high-quality partner to help you deliver the best message you can provide and capture your readers, I'm your writer.

About Me

Profile Type: Individual
Year Founded: 2000
Number of Employees: 1
I'm a freelance writer, with a long list of off-line clients, currently looking to expand my portfolio. I believe in perfection. I spend time agonizing over just the right word choice and turn of phrase. If you look for polished, clever writing - look no further. I write what you meant to say.

Many of my off-line projects involve ghostwriting and copywriting for Fortune 500 companies. As I do not retain rights to those works, I am unable to provide samples for those projects. However, I will be happy to answer any questions that don't violate confidentiality or non-disclosure agreements.

Elance policy prevents me from listing my professional website, but I'd be happy to provide it during the proposal process if you're interested in more information on my experience or services.

Payment Terms

Unless otherwise negotiated, payment is due upon receipt. For ongoing jobs with multiple phases or a series of articles, I may request partial payment with delivery of each phase or article. I guarantee delivery within your timeframe or I won't take the project. If the scope of the project changes, I will work with you to determine a new timeframe that works for both of us.

Detailed Service Description

I provide freelance writing services with experience in writing web content, newsletter content, articles, marketing materials and internal corporate documents. I have extensive experience ghostwriting, copywriting and editing corporate materials.

I focus on high-quality written material; I am not interested in producing large quantities of mediocre content. If you have a large project, I take the time to produce quality writing and bid accordingly. Whether you need a single page or a 200 page document, I'll work closely with you to deliver a polished and professional finished product.

I am extremely familiar with the Associated Press Stylebook, Strunk & White's Elements of Style and The Chicago Manual of Style. I am happy to incorporate any specific style or tone requirements to fit your publication needs.

Depending on your needs, I'm happy to discuss your details via PMB or project documents, or arrange a phone call or Web conference to discuss the details of your job. If applicable, I'll create an outline including action items and delivery timeframe for each phase of the project, which we'll both review for any discrepancies. For extensive projects, I'll post a weekly update. I will be in touch with you during every step of the process, and will be happy to address any questions or revisions you may have.
