    I've written a number of novels, two are published. I've written well over 5,000,000 words in published SEO content (primarily, I worked as a ghost writer in this capacity), and I get the odd opinion piece or gonzo reporting story published. I have multiple music albums out, and a comedy album for my comedy character, French Accent, who was featured on America's Got Talent, season 18. Comedy doesn't pay like it ought to, so I have worked steadily as a content writer over about the last six years. I also write copy for a Wyoming-local periodical called Anybody's Autos, for whom I wrote 40,000 words, roughly, in 2020. This was featured in content that is printed in the physical publication, as well as their website. Between music, comedy, writing, and varying appearances on podcasts, I keep busy eking out a living from multiple revenue sources. As such, I'm very quick to respond to any work, and I do my best to deliver quality in whatever I do.

    "I engaged David to rewrite some of my social media posts. Not only did David do a great job, but I found him easy to work with, reliable, versatile, and trustworthy. I have no hesitation in recommending David to work on your next content project." Kim Willis, Persuasion Pursuit Pte Ltd, Singapore. I am a writer, published author, copywriter, editor, entrepreneur, consultant, and a person of faith. Originally from New York and Pennsylvania, I currently live in eastern South Dakota with my spouse of 35-plus years; together we have two married children and five grandchildren. I am a veteran of the U.S. Air Force, an ordained minister in the United Church of Christ, and an owner of an online business. I additionally have a variety of other types of work and life experiences. I enjoy reading a wide range of subjects and writing and talking about them. I like history, reading, running, backcountry hiking, and interesting conversation. HOW CAN I HELP YOU? Perhaps you need some existing content to be rewritten - I can do that. If you want me to create new content, I can handle that too. No problem. Just give me your ideas or rough notes, share your goal or vision, and I'll take it from there. Some people say I can't write in other voices because I'm an American. Not true. For instance, I recently wrote content for a travel business based in Australia - 'good day, mate!'

    Bio for Animator Collaboration: Looking for a Talented 2D Animator for Adult Humor I've been writing humor short stories since 7th grade to make my friends laugh, and I will never stop. My dream is to turn these stories into cartoons, and I'm looking for a skilled 2D animator to help bring them to life. If you enjoy edgy humor and aren't easily offended, we might be a great match. I tried learning animation myself, but it was a disaster. I can't think visually, and the cartoons I made are unwatchable. However, I excel at crafting detailed scripts and vivid descriptions that will guide the animation process seamlessly. I'm confident we can collaborate effectively to bring my creative vision to life. Artistic cohesion: Understanding my humor and accentuating it with your unique animation style is more important to me than technically brilliant animation. The cartoons should be professional but don’t need to be state-of-the-art—something like "Family Guy" or "South Park" is perfect. Crude animation could even work if it complements my writing. If you're interested, I'd love to share more of my stories with you. Check out a couple of samples on my page, and let’s discuss how we can collaborate. Let's create something amazing together! sweez
