Service Description:
Over the last 14 years, writing has become not only my profession, but also, it is my passion. I have a broad interest in numerous subject areas and am a voracious reader.
As a published author and a professional ghost writer and editor, I have written both fiction and nonfiction for adults and children, as well as academic and general interest articles and texts. In addition, I have written numerous successful proposals for books, articles, and projects, and I enjoy writing book reviews, instructional materials, biographies, and histories. I wrote two monthly columns for a children's educational magazine for three years and served as primary editor for the publication. My work has been published in several anthologies.
My day job for over 17 years was as an educator. I taught English, Literature, Composition, and Creative Writing at all grade levels, including college level courses, served as an SAT Essay Scorer for the National SAT, and developed and taught numerous writing workshops in memoir, family stories, fiction, and nonfiction. These workshops are on-going even now and are sponsored through the University of South Carolina.
My second major in college was studio arts, and I've done quite a number of writing projects for artists in varying fields, as well as texts and articles on artists and their works, including artists statements, profiles, and reviews.
My work is professional, thorough, and always on-time. Working from home allows me to devote all my time to my various projects, and I am available almost always for "rush" projects.
