Freelance writer and editor

As a freelance writer, I cherish both words and grammar, an interest I've learned not everyone shares. Here are the types of projects I most commonly work on as a freelance writer/editor/proofreader*. 

• Blog writing and editing
• Magazine articles 
• Columns
• Press releases
• Website content
• SEO content writing (on-page, titles, meta)
• Brochures
• Nonprofit email marketing (donor appeals and newsletters)
• Bios
• Social media campaigns
• Line editing for books and devotionals 
• Training materials

*I proof in AP style formatting only.

Content writing pricing

There can be a lot of fear and anxiety about hiring a freelance writer or editor—what if you don't like the content? What if the writer goes above the word count? Here's how I approach this: 

• Scope of work: Agree on details before any writing or editing begins.
• Per-project fees: I do not bill hourly or by word count, it will be one flat fee.
• Not a good fit: I'm not the voice of everyone. Depending on the agreement, we can build in an "exit" plan so we're not locked in should we make better friends than colleagues. 

Do I only write professional content?

As a freelance writer/editor, I love to write! Follow my blog or check out my books. If you’re interested in sponsored content or you're a nonprofit requesting a guest blog, please contact me.

What are my bylines?

In addition to writing for my clients, I am also an inspiring speaker and author with a powerful story to tell. My bylines include:

• HuffPost
• Cure Magazine
• Philly Inquirer
• Stanford Scope
• Cook for your Life
• Fight Colorectal Cancer
• Colon Club
• Christianity Today
• Lifeway Research
• Brio Magazine
• Fellowship of Christian Athletes

Do I edit books?

I am not a full-length manuscript editor (although I'd love to hear about your book!). I have worked with authors who need line editing services, but I do not provide pre-press copyediting or proofreading of full-length manuscripts.

Do I offer social media services?

I use social media every day and as a freelance pr pro, I encourage my clients to use it as a tool to reach target audiences and goals. When creating content, I often write posts for various social media platforms. I build communications strategies with digital and social in mind.

However, I do not manage social media accounts on behalf of clients. If you’re looking for this type of help, I have an outstanding referral for you.
