    Hi there, I'm David! I have been a freelance writer and Musician for several years. I have extensive experience writing novels and short stories in various genres including, fantasy, romance, horror, and science fiction. I am inspired by so many different styles and authors around the world. I am an avid reader of books, comics, and I always make time to watch tv shows, movies and anime as well. I value the time I spend experiencing great stories because I know they make my own writing better. It is also important to me that I communicate clearly with all my clients.

    I’m a creative and adaptable writer with strengths in poetry, fiction, and storytelling. I also excel in content creation, particularly in blogging, copywriting, and affiliate marketing. My ability to write engaging reviews and explain concepts simply makes me well-suited for educational writing or creative writing. I do freelancing, self-publishing, creating content for brands, or offering editing and proofreading services. I've written pieces on sites like Wattpad and Inkitt. I've enjoyed writing since childhood, and I'm proud to say that I've evolved greatly as a writer. I once read that writing is like thinking through your fingers, and I'd love to assist people in achieving high standards in their essays and stories. Allow me to think through my fingers for you.

    With English as my native language, I have close to 20 years' experience as a corporate and creative writer. I can produce business content, as well as poetry, short stories and greeting card copy. I generate copy from scratch; but can also work with and refine existing copy, elevating it for a more senior audience or simplifying it for a more junior one. A stickler for perfect grammar, I insist on absolute hygiene in all and any copy. As such proofreading and editing are my fortes; one mistake is simply one too many. Naturally a curious person, I also enjoy research work. Tell me the area or topic you need a research piece on and I will extract only the information that will educate and engage your readers. I believe correctly crafted words can do anything to any given audience. I enjoy working with and refining words, adapting them so that they have maximum impact on the intended audience. I also have the advantage of having studied French and can competently translate French copy to English copy.
