    Hello. Choosing a writer is a difficult thing. There are thousands of good writers on this site. So, save a little time and hire me. It's so easy. I bring you over 35 years of professional work, from TV writing to standup comedy to kid's books, and everything in between. Yes, I have also worked with a bunch of famous people but I won't bore you with the details. Okay, Anthony Hopkins. Jason Alexander. I'll stop now... Michael McKean. My clients always come first, no matter the project. I value your feedback and I will bend over backwards, like Simone Biles, to get it right. I look forward to working with you. Phil

    I am a young writer with over four years of experience in creative writing, proofreading, and editing in a private capacity. During this period, I learned to use the old art of writing to produce solutions for people seeking words to transform their ideas into reality or positively position their businesses. I am most comfortable writing articles, short stories, and scripts. Through working for clients online and offline, I have grounded my ability to skillfully execute complex projects while prioritizing customer satisfaction with diligent research and creative compositions. A lifetime of fascination with stories and the words that make them has burnished my ability to create writings in unpopular fashions that leave lasting impressions on anyone who comes across them. Why Do I Write? Every word is essential to me; if I'm honest, words are all I have. Words are the ingredients that realize my imagination. They are my only tools. I have a sense of humor—people say so—that also likes to show up in my works, and my writing covers a range of disciplines and interests requiring either fictional or non-fictional applications. I can employ my expertise to improve your business and help you tell an old story with fresh, intriguing insights. If you need help designing a concept for your brand, and the words won't budge, or you want to flesh out an idea that seems stuck in its conceptual mold, contact me; let's find a solution for you. I'm the team lead of King Homes Charity's Content Creation Department, where I contribute my quota to managing a team of creatives devoted to the service of humanity. I post articles on Medium at Ishola Quwam, and I also blog at Akowekowura.wordpress.com.

    Writing is my passion. I have over 25 years of experience as a professional writer. My writing has been featured in BAM magazine, Northwest Brides, Scandalous Women, as well as in a number of other publications as an uncredited ghostwriter. I am a regular writer on Medium, Vocal Media, and a contributor on Newsbreak. I have maintained an excellent reputation on UpWork for over 10 years, much of that time with a top-rated or top-rated plus status. During that time, I have successfully completed writing assignments in subtitling, transcription, content writing, product descriptions, video descriptions, data entry, novels, novellas, short stories, and more. My work experience prior to becoming a full-time writer is very diverse. I've completed transcription and other writing in both the legal and medical fields. I spent almost a decade as a technical writer for a NASA contractor. I also have experience in a variety of industries that include retail, manufacturing, marketing, sales, and customer service. In addition to writing skills, I am proficient with PowerPoint and Excel. I offer a high attention to detail. I'm proficient in sentence structure, grammar, and punctuation. My broad background makes me the ideal candidate for a variety of writing assignments and I'm always eager to learn new things when needed. In addition to quality content, I adhere to all design, formatting, and style standards required. I am organized, punctual, and maintain effective communications with clients. I guarantee dependability, enthusiasm, and originality in all my work. I'd love an opportunity to put my skills to work for you.

    My grandfather designed and built houses. My father was a chemical engineer and a woodworker who constructed furniture during the weekend. I like to think that the building impulse is in my genes; my raw material is not wood and nails but rather words. My passion for language and story precipitated my choices in my studies and in my career. As an English teacher, I love teaching students who are preparing for college and careers. I have also worked with student writers who have gained national recognition for their fiction and poetry. I have helped people expand their writing to elaborate on details and I have helped writers reduce their writing to fit a particular word count. My MA in Writing Studies allowed me to focus on my passion: fiction and poetry. While in the program, I also worked with journalism, editing, and nonfiction of all sorts. I have written 3 books as well. My skills include: • Close reading for grammar, spelling, organization, syntax, etc. • Correcting issues with wording, voice, and sentence structure. • Providing feedback on content. • Providing editorial support for application essays. • Providing editorial support for essays and other works of nonfiction. • Assisting poets and fiction writers with development of their work. • Tailoring writing to a specific audience. • Tutoring individuals who want to improve their writing. I write with an awareness of purpose and audience. I will work to your specifications, trying to provide the support that you need for your written work.

    Let’s face it: It’s not about the length of the copy. It’s how you use it. And bullet messages pierce through minds harder than real ones. My writing is brief, precise, and with a bang! Bang bang… Now let’s scale it up. And I don’t mean font size. There you are, looking for the best words for your company; whether you own it, run it, or manage some outsourcing aspects of it. Here you can find copy and words that engage, tell a story, and drive an action. What’s best of all is that I offer hassle-free copywriting services. All you have to do is relax and enjoy the experience. That’s because you’re putting your written communication in the hands of a pro copywriter. Writing the copy your project needs is like a coming of age process, where someone puts the proper word in its proper place and everything falls into place. I’ll be the ideal narrator for that story. Just like you, I know what a true professional really is. I’ve been through the ropes, I can tie a Windsor with one hand, and I can write clever enough copy so you keep reading it, and smile surprised that you actually do so. So my words might have some magic in it—the type of magic casted from talent and experience. Also, the type of magic you are looking for. That’s because your projects are a bit lost of words right now. Don’t worry, I’m here to fix that, improve it, give it a voice, make it legendary. Yet, all is useless if not for R.O.I and creating copy that sells. You already know there are words that inspire and words that sell. I can do the words that inspire any sell. After all, you’re already sold (into me) by now, right? Drop me a line and I’ll drop the beat. And the syntax.
