Creative Writer for Non-Fiction and Fiction with Research Skills
$35.00/hr
I’m a professional writer in Providence, RI, seeking freelance work in creative and nonfiction writing. I offer beta reading, critiques, developmental editing, coaching, copywriting, and ghostwriting. I have experience working with various genres, including romance, erotica, paranormal, high fantasy, science fiction, horror, personal narratives, and essays. I enjoy reading on various topics and am open to a wide range of work.
In 2020, I completed an MFA in Creative Writing and a Professional Writing Certificate at Southern New Hampshire University. Along with my graduate studies, I hold a B.A in History with archival, researching, and museum experience. Along with my formal education, I have several years of restaurant and food experience. I have developed excellent recipe development and creation skills as an artisan baker. I also have excellent time management and organizational skills and am social media savvy.
I have completed several ghostwriting projects, from contemporary romance to nonfiction and research work. I’m working on my first novel and have a story published with Crone Girls Press and several micro poems published with small independent presses.
