Whether you just need an extra set of eyes on your cover letter or application essay, want a reporter's input on a press release, or are looking for someone to help you record and write your family story, I'd be honored to help. As a reporter for one of the largest regional newspapers in the county, I am challenged daily to write clear, concise, engaging and error-free copy that will capture and hold a reader's attention. I have a passion for helping others improve their own writing from the brainstorming and outlining stage to the final round of edits. I work quickly, offer multiple rounds of edits and use programs that track my suggested changes in real time. My goal with every editing project is to capture the client's writing voice while making sure each idea is clearly conveyed. I can also offer writing coaching and editing assistance for students applying for academic programs or scholarships. I funded my first year of college with private scholarships that I won by writing essays, and I know of several databases to help you find niche scholarships tailored for your experiences and interests. For the last six years, I've helped many young professionals write and polish cover letters, scholarship, and academic essays. To see examples of my journalism, visit my website at maraklecker.squarespace.com From past clients: "When working on my cover letter for different job applications, Mara was a great resource for me. After sending Mara my first draft, she got detailed feedback to me the same day. Mara worked on several different drafts of the same letter with me for days, making sure every detail was perfect. She helped me with general grammar, word choice, sentence structure and choosing necessary information to include in the letters. Mara helped me articulate my feelings in my writing while making my writing sound intelligent and direct. I would recommend working with Mara if you're looking someone who gives direct and honest feedback and has impeccable attention to detail." -- Emmie M., a public relations professional "Mara helped me bring my grad school application letter to the next level. And YES, I got in my dream school. She was very thorough with my drafts, gave me a lot constructive feedback, and helped me address my biggest writing concerns. I had a great time working with Mara as well. What I appreciated the most about her work is that she always tried to understand what story I wanted to tell and gave me advice on how to tell it well, instead of just correcting the grammar. She was also very effective and to the point, which is a plus when you have a deadline." -- April Z.

Since 2012, I've been a free-lance instructor for homeschool tutorials. I have taught upper elementary, middle and high school. The subjects I've covered include science, computer, history, language arts, and writing. My specialty--and preference--is language arts. I've developed my own incremental writing lessons for middle school. These lessons are featured on SchoolhouseTeacher.com, and are geared for grades 5 and 8. My goal is to teach kids that writing is easy if you break it down. I've written a Renaissance history curriculum for the same site. This features hands-on projects, and note taking. I've also had the pleasure of revamping their entire spelling curriculum, Schoolhouse Spelling. I enjoy creative writing, and have written several short stories and articles.

Language has power, and writing well is my greatest skill! As a high-quality copy editor, I often collaborate with expert copy writers, business owners, and marketing groups to create unique and powerful content. I will help you create publishing campaigns so all of your social media channels coincide with your blog and article posts and company emails. Working with your editorial style guide (if you don't have one, don't worry! I can help you with this as well), I will polish or even create novel content to build customer engagement and increase retention rates. Depending on your needs, I can: - Proofread—correcting grammar, punctuation, capitalization, and formatting. - Copy edit—review your content and offer suggestions on creating better flow, correcting poor word choice, improving messaging, fixing unnatural phrasing and bad or unusual structure. I can perform a deep reorganization or even rewriting of the source content, bringing it to the highest standard of professionalism. - Provide guidance for students on writing assignments—I can help you successfully interpret and answer your confusing essay prompts, brainstorm ideas for what to say, build a structure for your thoughts, and help you communicate your ideas smoothly and clearly with correct vocabulary and grammar. - Write original copy for blogs, articles, social media posts, and emails. I also have significant experience as a team leader. In my most recent long-term contract, I successfully managed a layered team of two writers and two virtual assistants to dynamically respond to market demands.

How's it going? I'm a passionate writer from the frigid midwest who escaped to the surf and sun of California! I started my writing journey in fiction, well over a decade ago, and have since written three novels, several feature screenplays, and have worked with a variety of clients writing everything from greeting card descriptions to web copy for high-profile artist collaborations. Fun Fact: I was raised almost entirely on 80's music and movies! I'm first and foremost a storyteller, taking the reader on a journey that intrigues them, delights them, and excites them! This spirited sense of showmanship will give your products, websites, and blogs a zest and a sparkle, drawing attention to your services or products in a way that is organic and memorable. Supplementing my writing skills is an understanding of SEO keywords, research, brand positioning, and audience/demographic targeting. I have a special interest in fashion, design, architecture, travel, and fine art. However, I have a natural curiosity and a talent for quick learning, so no matter the topic I will deliver with passion!
