Do you need a high-quality, trope-driven, captivating fiction piece that keeps your readers coming back for more? Looking for a romance novel in the paranormal, historical, or contemporary genre? Is your project high-priority, and does it require on-time, well-edited prose? *** My current rate is $0.06 per word. Please limit invitations for projects with strict budgets far below this rate. Thank you! *** —General Overview— I'm a highly skilled writer who can craft a dynamic romance, fantasy, or thriller. With an English and Creative Writing degree from the University of Iowa, I understand how to create plots, characters, and circumstances that keep readers glued to the page. Whether you’re working with a vague idea or detailed plot, I can make it into great fiction. —Romance— Romance is all about showing the spark between two characters. Through excellent setting, stakes, and characterization, we guide the love interests through the process of falling in love and finding their happily-ever-after. These are some romance subgenres and tropes in which I specialize: • Contemporary romance -Small town -Billionaire -LGBTQ+ -Enemies-to-lovers -Sports -Romantic comedy • Historical romance -Victorian -Western • Anti-mimetic romance -Shifter -Werewolf -Vampire -Romantasy ~Please Note~ I am comfortable writing all levels of romantic spice, from clean or sweet romance to steamy or erotic. However, I *will not* write nonconsensual scenes or romanticize any abusive behavior. This is why dark romance and mafia romance are excluded from my specialties (though I may write these genres, given they're free from the above elements.) —Outlines and Planning— Have the idea for a story, but not sure how to bring it to life? I create detailed outlines, with chapter-by-chapter details, textured character boards, and comprehensive setting plans. Reach out for pricing on this service! —Current Rate— My current ghostwriting rate is $0.06 per word, but this varies depending on genre, process, and deliverables. If you’re unsure about budget, we can always chat and work something out. Not sure if I’m the best writer for your job? I’m always open to discussing a project and seeing how I can contribute!

PROFESSIONAL SUMMARY I have over 26 years of experience in environmental planning, public engagement, and grant writing for cities, counties, waste facilities, and Watershed Management Authorities (WMAs) in eastern Iowa. My early professional experience centered on completing the Comprehensive Regional Integrated Solid Waste Plan detailing how waste facilities will reduce waste landfilled. As regional needs changed, I expanded services to include delivery of the Iowa Waste Exchange program, Hazard Mitigation planning, Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) grants, and watershed planning and management. In the past twelve years, I have facilitated the formation of five WMAs and completed three Watershed Management Plans. This work broadened my expertise while highlighting strengths in organization and communication.

Writing has always been my passion. Throughout high school, I’ve written multiple books and created countless stories in Google Docs, exploring different themes and genres. I also contributed to my school’s blog and newspaper, which gave me the opportunity to share my work with a larger audience. Storytelling is more than just a hobby for me—it’s a part of who I am. Whether I’m crafting fictional worlds or writing meaningful articles, I love using words to connect with people and bring ideas to life.
