    I am a highly creative script, corporate and ghost writer/editor, with over 20 diverse and exciting years of experience, including a BAFTA award for the BBC TV series Horrible Histories. I write short-form explainer video scripts for Explainify and a host of brands and production companies, along with blogs, books, training courses, webinars and general copy, across a huge variety of industries, from engineering to wellness, non-profit to leisure, software to pet care.

I also still write, edit and ideate for TV and a range of creative clients, from Tik Tok comedians, to You Tube channels, to first-time writers.

    I work with authors and publishers, primarily in the romance and fantasy genres, to elevate the quality of their books through multiple stages of editing. I have years of experience editing romance and fantasy novels, including work with many tropes and sub-genres. I especially love editing queer romance, dark romance, and paranormal romance. We could be a great fit if you are: 1) A romance or fantasy author looking for an editor before you self-publish, or before submitting your manuscript to traditional publishers 2) A publisher who specializes in romance or fantasy novels looking for a consistent, reliable editor to help with plot development, developmental edits on first drafts, line editing, or copyediting/proofreading. I love romance and fantasy books, and I understand what makes a story great. I love playing ā€œbook doctorā€ā€”finding things that arenā€™t working in the story and giving solid, actionable feedback to fix it. And I understand the nitty gritty details of working with the English language to communicate a story to the reader. I follow the Chicago Manual of Style, while deferring to each authorā€™s unique voice, and I make all edits in Word using Track Changes. Send me a message with your word count, genre, timeline, and the type of editing youā€™re looking for, and we can get started!

Currently, I seek out any web content writing opportunities, in addition to proofreading and editing opportunities on contract to supplement my income. Advantages to working with me are that I have a experience in educating students in English, so I am well-versed on grammar, punctuation and style, in addition to being patient and taking constructive criticism well.

    I have no idea why Upworks does not list me as a native English speaker, but I am. I seek Fiction Writing assignments that utilize my unique life, work, and academic experience to produce an interesting and engaging end product for my employer. I firmly believe that a human's capacity to love is equaled only by it's capacity for deceit. I studiously avoid formula writing, providing an uncommon perspective even on the most hackneyed themes. I have over 75 titles published on Amazon under the pen name Logan Woods, ghostwritten more than 16 full length novels and written and sold more than 500 short stories and novelettes. One of my ghostwritten novellas has been made into a motion picture short that has so far won more than 8 International Film awards. I have worked professionally now as a writer, an editor, a photographer, a magazine layout man, a Municipal Police Officer, a Soldier, and in a variety of positions in the construction equipment rental industry. My academic background is nearly as varied, I have a B.S. in Resource Management, and Minors in Economics and Military Science.

    ā€œOne of the most talented writers Iā€™ve ever seen.ā€ As a ghostwriter, I receive your story idea at any stage of development and transform it into a completed work of artā€”to be authored under your name. I do the work. You reap the spoils. A published author with over a decade of professional experience, Iā€™ve ghostwritten numerous books and screenplays for a diverse range of clients that include best-selling authors, screenwriters, actors, filmmakers, CEOs, and tech entrepreneurs. Iā€™ve worked both as a freelancer and as a contractor for agencies in Australia, Canada, and the United Kingdom, with a number of my authored titles being published through various presses and a number of scripts currently in production. The genres I write in are (mostly) comedy, drama, memoir, mystery, and science-fiction. However, I specialize in writing upmarket thrillers. What is an upmarket thriller? The ultimate genre, really. ā€œUpmarketā€ is an industry term used to describe stories that contain elements of both commercial and literary fiction. Stories that take existing genre tropes and add to them deeper characterization, an elevated writing style, and penetrating questions about the human condition. A ā€œthriller,ā€ on the other hand, is a genre defined by its reliance on mystery, suspense, and an overall foreboding tone. Characters are duplicitous, expectations are subverted, and the line between good and evil is murky to non-existent. In other words, upmarket thrillers combine the best of both worlds. They use commercial tropes as the digestible framework with which to explore complex metaphysical themes. Simply put, whether a novel or screenplay, they are enigmatic stories well-told. Dark and exciting narratives that leave the audience with thought-provoking questions long after the final pages have been turned. And whether one of the many sub-genresā€”crime, action, legal, historical, spy, politicalā€”they are perhaps the most cinematic of all stories. No Country for Old Men, The Maltese Falcon, Gone Girl, The Silence of the Lambs, Casino Royale, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, A Clockwork Orange, The Talented Mr. Ripleyā€”all are upmarket thrillers. Shows like True Detective, Breaking Bad, and Peaky Blinders would fit into the category as well. You can see now why Iā€™ve made them my speciality. In terms of services, I offer the full gamut here on Upwork, from narrative consulting and editing existing works to creating whole stories from scratch. So whether you've a rough draft finished or merely a vague concept in your head, Iā€™ll take your existing material and draft it into a compelling and professional narrative. Upmarket thriller or not. So are you ready to make your dream novel or screenplay a reality? Then reach out and letā€™s get started. I canā€™t wait to hear your storyā€”and canā€™t wait for you to see it on the page!

    Hello! I have been writing since I was a teenager and have greatly been working to improve myself in this area. Writing is my passion and I dedicate myself to it completely. I also edit as well to make sure my work is polished nicely before publication. I can type roughly around 102 words a minute and my word count can vary from 2,000 to 6,000 words per day, depending on the day. My goal is starting a project and finishing it. My goals include punctuality, passion and presentation, so that I can hand over a project with pride.
