CONTENT, BLOGGING, AND COPYWRITING (OH MY)
Writing is hard work. Let me do it for you.
When done well, writing is the ideal marketing tool. Whether you need someone to take complicated language and make it readable, or carefully craft a voice that is on message with your brand, I can help you.
CONTENT AND COPY WRITING
It is no surprise that the average user stays a mere thirty seconds on a given web page before leaving. Think about the current content on your website. Does it tell your story, express your brand, invite clients in, and set your company apart in thirty seconds? With some help, it can.
BLOG
Today's consumer is inundated with options. In our overly digitized world, a blog is an ideal way to give a face and personality to your business. It is cost efficient advertising that promotes your brand and sets the tenor of your website.
ABOUT ME
Mark Twain told us, “The difference between the right word and the almost right word is the difference between lightning and a lightning bug.” It has been in pursuit of that right world that I have joyously spent my adult life. I have a B.S. in English Literature and Secondary Education, an M.A. in English Literature , and an MFA in Writing. I have a passion for the written word, and I believe that when used properly, it is one of the strongest tools we have. Words on a page can motivate, inspire, persuade, and incite. For the past twelve years I've used my love of literature as an educator, working both inside the classroom and on the policy end of things. Now my obsession with words has brought me to a career in freelance and creative writing.
"Good words are worth much, and cost little."
George Herbert
WRITING SAMPLES
I write about what I'm passionate about, and one of those passions is helping small businesses tell their story.
Opening a pizza restaurant in New Haven is a risky move. One6Three needed to set their brand and business apart from the big names in order to thrive. To do this, we've worked to develop their niche and tell their unique story.
CrossFit Expression is a small gym in a big industry. When we sat down and thought about what set them apart from their local competition, it was clear that a celebration of diversity and a feeling of inclusiveness was at the core of their mission and beliefs.
Farm and Land is a new lifestyle brand that is focused on getting people reconnected to the land. They were looking for a team of writers to create blog entries for their newly published website. Pitching ideas to the team, and creating original content proved to be a fulfilling experience. I've created a plethora of backlogged content for this new platform.
