A full-time freelancer since 2000, I write for a variety of trade and consumer periodicals. My byline has appeared with more than 8,500 published works of non-fiction and fiction.
Whether you want a freelance writer in Rochester or Syracuse, N.Y. for a short-term project or ongoing work, or if you’re anywhere on the globe, I can likely fill your need.
Purchasing high-quality writing is more affordable than you think. Peruse the samples, and check the price chart. Or, hire me on retainer to cover writing needs as they arise each month. Contact me to take care of your writing needs.
I complete copy writing projects for companies worldwide, including custom, exclusive content for blogs and web sites; marketing, sales and public relations materials; and personal writing such as resumes, thank-you notes and more.
I also sell photographs, including event photography and stock images.
