Hi! I specialize in high quality content and copywriting, including blog posts, articles, product descriptions landing pages, email newsletter, and more. My best niches are travel, lifestyle, business and personal development, product review, technology, health, beauty, garment, and home appliances. I studied English Literature in the UK and graduated with a 2:1. Throughout my degree, I regularly wrote for the university newspaper and student blog. I've completed an internship in a national newspaper company (The Jakarta Post), where many of my articles and feature stories were published online & in print. Do you need a ghostwriter for a creative project? Good news, I also write short stories, poetry, and shorter novels. Now this doesn't feel like work to me because I genuinely enjoy creating them! Please visit my website to learn more about my writing style. For non-fiction gigs, I have done several interviews and short biographical pieces.

Hello, I'm Allen! I'm a ghostwriter and translator of Bahasa Indonesia-English. I'm an author on some platforms in which I wrote stories in both English and Bahasa Indonesia. I've been writing stories since 2017 (and started publishing in 2019) and my books are mostly focus on romantic-drama, romantic-comedy, and teen-fic. Other than that, I also design e-invitations/webnovel covers. It's nice to meet you all and looking forward to work together. :)

Hi there, thank you for taking the time to read my profile! Whether it’s a book, a screenplay, short stories, articles, art exhibit, or even fan fiction, you have a story to tell, and I’m here to help you do just that. I'm a multi-talented writer, and I can be your go-to ghostwriter, fiction writer, screenwriter, or even factual journalist. At 12k-15k word a week, I have quick turnaround time with proven results, gaining well over 250,000 reads and 7k+ shares on social media. An anthology book I'm featured in (Twisted Library Vol. 3) even made it to #5 on the Horror Short Stories Amazon list. My favorite genres are: ~ Horror ~ Romance ~ Comedy ~ Sci-fi ~ Children’s fiction Or a blend of all of them! Oh did I mention I also have an Art History BA from Istituto Marangoni Firenze? This led me to curate for Museo Ferragamo & Museo Marino Marini. So artists, gallerists, and other exhibition spaces, please don’t hesitate to get in touch about your exhibition, artist statement, grant writing assistance, or portfolio review, one of the artists I work with had successfully received the 2019 KAMS grant too! My job is to write the piece that you want, containing great ideas that we can come up with together for the audience you want to reach. So what do you say? Let’s cook up something amazing together!

My name is Theresa, a freelance writer who has enjoyed $10k+ earning in Upwork with around 460 hours worked. Whatever it is that you need, as long as it relates to writing, rest assured that you are in good hands with me! Have writer's block? I will be a fun and enthusiastic brainstorming partner for you! I daydream a lot and have limitless plot bunnies hopping around. I will enthusiastically brainstorm with you, expand your plot, help you world-build, or anything else you need, for as low as $20 per hour. Don't have a plot? I will be a creative plot developer for you! Just let me know your chosen genre and some additional preferences, and I will crank up a sweet storyline for you. Barebone or fully detailed, it's your choice. Up to two free revisions available. The fee is to be discussed, depending on the genre and how detailed you want the plot to be. Wonder if your story is any good? I will be a professional beta-reader for you! I will read your work and provide you with a detailed report on what is/isn't working with your story for as low as $50 per story of up to 40.000 words. Have a plot but don't know how to flesh it out? I will be a well-rounded ghostwriter for you! I will bring your plot to life with realistic dialogues and immersive settings, and an ability to capture the heart of the story. Afraid you'll offend anyone with your story? I will be a thoughtful sensitivity reader for you! I'm a woman and a person of color who, having lived my life all around the globe, have families and friends that come from all kinds of faith, culture, profession, and gender orientation. I will tell you if your story had the potential to offend a particular group of people and will give you suggestions on how to skirt around the issue. In short, whatever it is that you need, please be assured that you are in good hands! My Upwork test scores may offer you glimpses of my skills, and my clients' feedback can attest to my professionalism and expertise. I am always open to doing a small test job to see if I'm the right fit for your need. You can hire me by the hour, by milestones, or by the project. My $20/hour rate is lower than the average rate in the industry because I'm still trying to break into the field, and therefore, this would be a win-win for us! I am also a very communicative and accommodating person who's willing to listen and cater to my employer's needs as long as it's possible for me to do so. I guarantee that you won't regret hiring me! As a US-educated professional, my writing leans towards North American English.

Hello! I'm a creative writing enthusiast and a Computer Science Bachelor from Bina Nusantara University. I can work on translation, proofreading, subtitling, and interpreting projects. I use written English daily and have little difficulty switching between English and Indonesian when conversing. As for my portfolio outside the ones in my profile, I've been a volunteer translator for Our Daily Bread Indonesia since 2018, and have worked on subtitling and interpreting since 2023. If you hire me, you'll be sure to get high-quality work. I'm also quite a perfectionist, so you can be sure that I've checked my work at least twice. Still, don't let this stop you from telling me I made a mistake, even a tiny one. In fact, please do! I'm sure it will help us both immensely. I'll accept criticisms with an open mind. I look forward to working with you!

Saya lumayan bisa memasak, jika saya bosan saya akan membaca buku atau bermain game, karena saya tidak pandai berkata-kata saya selalu meluapkannya dengan menulis kiasan, puisi, cerpen, novel, bahkan menulis lirik lagu. Saya tidak suka berdebat jika itu tidak perlu, meskipun perlu juga saya akan menjauhinya karena saya tahu emosi orang bagaimana. Saya suka dengan karya buku para filsuf, selain itu saya suka sekali musik bahkan setiap hari saya harus mendengarkan musik, saya sedikit religius juga. Dan terpenting saya sangat cinta keluarga saya, saya ingin menjadi seorang penulis dan penyair, saya ingin membuka perusahaan terutama bagian logistik. Saya ingin menggapai cita cita saya untuk menjadi penulis, penyair dan pengusaha untuk meningkatkan harkat derajat orang tua saya dan juga saya ingin menikahi seorang perempuan yang sangat baik yaitu Azizi asadel, karena itu saya harus bekerja keras untuk mendapatkan cintanya. Sebenarnya saya kriteria orang yang cenderung harus berkegiatan, apapun itu. Tapi saya jarang berolahraga, saya bisa kok menerima pekerjaan apapun sebetulnya yang terpenting orang dirumah tidak kelaparan. Saya hanya bisa berharap apapun yang saya inginkan segera terwujud. Sebenarnya saya itu memiliki seperti penyakit mungkin, ya saya itu insomnia jujur saja. Dan juga punya panic attack. Tapi itu tidak akan menghambat saya untuk berkarir dan berkarya, saya ingin karya saya dinikmati semua orang dan mudah mudahan juga bisa di jadikan sebuah film. Tapi tetap saja saya harus berusaha dan berdoa kepada Tuhan agar semua nya berjalan dengan baik.
