    Hello! My name is Jennifer, and I have been writing creatively for blogs and magazines since 2008. My work has appeared in major outlets such as National Geographic, Apartment Therapy, Southern Living, and Lonely Planet. I have also done a fair amount of ghost writing for Upwork clients. Knowing what catches the reader's interest and presenting the information with a warm tone in a clear, concise, accurate way is my specialty! I am a grammar nerd who also understands the needs of a business as I have been a business owner since 2010. I LOVE catching the visions that other people have and translating those into workable, interesting articles. I work in a professional manner on a short timeline and would love to take on your project. Thank you! :) NOTES ~ Please don't contact me about getting your business placed in an article on a major outlet. I don't feel that this is genuine unless I disclose it to the outlet. ~ Most of my writing is not via Upwork or in my profile as I've taken on a few long-term clients and work consistently for several national outlets. Thank you! ~ I do not accept a per hour rate. My current rate is 20 cents a word, which includes SEO keyword research and placement, breaking an article into headlines, and running the article through a paid version of Grammarly. All of this adds up to quality, proofread, SEO-rich articles. Thank you!

    I have 13 years experience in medical transcription. Most recently my projects have included transcribing multiple-participant interviews and pastors' sermons. My strengths are in proofreading and editing. I type 90 words-per-minute with accuracy. I have 8 years experience in billing and accounts receivable using Sage 50 accounting software. I taught myself how to use the Sage 50 software, and then streamlined the entire billing and accounts receivable process for my client. I am often praised for my accurate work and quick turn-around time.

    If you're on a time crunch or trying to finish a written project that you can't seem to get "just right," then you have come to the right place! I absolutely adore writing and editing, especially when I get to help others in the process. I enjoy reading as much as possible, and I presently encourage others by posting my written, edited, and designed content on my public Instagram account. On top of that, I have been editing technical, scientific, psychological, and theological studies for nearly two years. I love writing and editing creative non-fiction, creative fiction, and poetry pieces and have experience editing, formatting, and proofreading large books. As I have exposure to checking for readability and flow of work, I also have experience writing and editing cover letters and resumes. In addition to that, I am near perfect in Turabian formatting, well-versed in MLA, and experienced with APA. Also, I am proficient in the Google Documents application and work well with Microsoft Word. I am excellent with time management and organizational skills, and I enjoy learning about others and their experiences! I will work with you from start to finish, and I work well under pressure with flexible schedules and situations. I am very invested and dedicated to my work and will make sure to complete your project according to your liking and preferences. Fast communication is of utmost importance to me as I value the time and energy of my clients!

    Current student pursuing a BA in History, with a passion for creative writing, research, and reading; looking for remote beta reading or editing work. Approximately a decade of skilled experience volunteering in libraries (public, school, and other literary settings), as well as creating and implementing educational programs for literary material--this means I'm well-suited for reviewing the appeal of written material to a general or specified audience group, as well as simply providing feedback on the content of said material. Passionate about reading, writing, and synthesizing research into easily digestible content for the purpose of education (in both the fields of literature and history). Thank you in advance for your consideration, I'd love to work with you!

    Salutations! My name is Trystan Pantana. I like to consider my prowess as a pianist and grammar aficionado as a Creative Combo. I am self-taught in playing piano and have been playing for four years. I play by ear, and I have been writing my own songs for two years. Neo-classical is my favorite genre, and that tends to be what my music sounds most like. Whether you want an intro/outro song to your video, a song to play in the background for 15 minutes, or anything in-between, then this ivory-tickler is who you require. If I could choose anything as my one passion, it would be correcting people’s grammar. There’s nothing quite like it. So if you’re having some doubts about your own writing, whether it be the grammar, spelling, sentence structure and flow, fact accuracy, etc, then look no further and get your pal here to lend a hand (and an eraser)!

    I haven’t done any professional book reviews, but I always loved writing summaries of books and articles throughout school. I enjoy reading on it’s own, but the addition of writing a summary and review makes it even more exciting. It keeps me engaged because I know I need to pay attention to every detail, and I’m a very detail oriented person! I’m a fan of fiction and nonfiction. I love being immersed in the world of fiction as well as seeing the world from different perspectives through nonfiction. Once I sit down with a good book, I’m there for the long haul.
