Born and bred in California, I am a literature enthusiast with more than nine years of professional writing and editing experience. I’ve tackled everything from business bios and blogs to memoirs, novels, and website copy. My philosophy is simple: I’m here to perfect the raw material you bring to the table. For business owners, this means writing SEO-optimized, high-converting content for landing pages, blog posts, and professional bios. This is 2025. People imbibe internet content at a million miles per hour. Your website needs eye-catching copy if it’s going to hold visitors for longer than half a second. And no, ChatGPT upchuck is neither eye-catching, nor unique to your brand voice. For those with a story to tell, perfection means your story, in your voice, impeccably polished and delivered to your doorstep like a package on Christmas. Whether handling memoirs, contemporary dramas, or fantasy epics, my goal is to hand you your story better than you ever imagined it could be. For non-fiction, your raw material might be a list of herbal supplements or parenting techniques. It might be a dissertation on Eastern philosophy, or top ten sales tricks for small business owners. As editor or ghostwriter, I can research, write, or rewrite content to find that magnetic voice: the one that will attract—and retain—readers, clients, and customers. Whether you want standout copy for your website, a children’s adventure packed with treasure chests and sea serpents, or a memoir that captures the humanity of your life story, I’d be more than happy to bring your vision to life. My expertise covers: - SEO copywriting - Website content: about pages, landing pages, brand messaging, bios - Blog & article writing - Proofreading & editing - Ghostwriting - Novels - Memoirs - Personal development - Spiritual & philosophical literature - Personal statements - YouTube scripts I accept both short- and long-term work. I offer hourly and flat rate quotes, and would be delighted to meet you for a free 15-min phone or video consultation. Warm regards, Savannah TESTIMONIALS: "Savannah is the best you can get for thoughtful and in-depth writing on any subject. She is my go-to person for any project I have." "A very good article writer - The best choice I could have made for my article on Upwork. Her command of the English language exceeded my expectations. Very, very happy with her work.” "If you have any questions about Savannah, you can lay them to rest now. You will not regret hiring her. She will outperform your expectations." "Another FANTASTIC job by Savannah! . . . She goes above and beyond and delivers in the time frame she promises. OUTSTANDING!” "Savannah brought so much life and emotion into my story draft. Right from the start, she understood my intentions and knew all the strings to pull to color in the narrative arch, find the right pacing, connect the reader to the characters."

DOCUMENTATION, RESEARCH & PROCEDURAL WRITING I am highly skilled in: complex document preparation investigative writing procedural writing structured reporting evidence-based analysis professional correspondence handbook/manual review formatting and organization research and document synthesis I am particularly effective at taking: disorganized information fragmented drafts procedural confusion emotionally charged communication unclear documentation and turning them into: clear organized defensible professional written material.

I assist authors with all stages of the self-publishing process, including editing, proofreading, formatting for KDP and Ingram Spark, and designing or sourcing book covers. I am a lifelong lover of literature and have been working in the publishing industry since I completed high school in 2010. I worked as the lead editor for the hybrid publishing company Lifestyle Entrepreneurs Press from 2016 - 2022 and am currently contracted by multiple publishing consultants and small publishing companies. I do, however, love working one-on-one with authors and businesspeople through Upwork when my schedule permits! I have over ten years of experience in developmental editing, copy editing, proofreading, freelance writing (articles, blogs, how-to guides, educational curriculum, and product descriptions), book cover design, fact-checking, and formatting books and magazines for various publishing platforms. I have edited fiction novels, memoirs, young adult sci-fi/fantasy novels, creative nonfiction, short stories, children's books, biographies, academic papers, and educational texts. The most common projects I work on are in the personal-development/self-help genres. In 2013, I received a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology at the University of Colorado Boulder, and in 2015, I obtained my Master of Science degree in Applied Psychology from Trinity College Dublin. I have experience in using multiple style guides, including APA and the Chicago Manual of Style, in both book publishing and academic journal writing.

Just meaningful, well-structured content that serves both your reader and your message. - I’m available Monday through Friday unless stated otherwise and will usually respond to an email within 4 hours (24 hours max). Lastly, I consume mass amounts of both coffee and tea (for the flavor, not just the caffeine); I am a mom of a four-year-old who sometimes makes me think he’s the more creative between the two of us; and I am a wife to a man who reminds me daily that God is in control, and my number #1 job–no matter the project–is to love people well. Let’s create something powerful together! Check out Mistbound Scribe at mistboundscribe.com for more information about me and my ghostwriting services.
