I am a published writer; editors from national magazines - including Woman's Day - confirm I am a gifted writer. I invested 28 years with Deloitte and am a business writer extraordinaire. I now help clients like you enhance your brand and catapult over the competition. As a ghostwriter, my blogs have been published in Forbes, Huffington Post, and Yahoo Finance. I edited two WSJ bestsellers and created content for Notre Dame University. If you need a master storyteller, executive communications expert, or feature writer I'm your resource! Using my imagination and carefully scripted messages, I've accomplished what many aspiring freelancers covet; I've cracked through the steel doors of global magazine editors and persuaded them to print my articles. Working at Deloitte for three decades, I have a firm grasp on the world of accounting and taxation. So what is my secret sauce to fine writing? I’ve spent decades mining magical caverns of forgotten words, selected the finest and stored them like jewels in my treasure chest. When writing, I carefully retrieve and assemble them so each sentence flows to the next like a melodious sonnet. The result? I’ve amassed a sterling portfolio. Now that I’ve achieved my lifelong goals, allow me the pleasure of helping you attain yours. Perhaps you want copy edits that maintain the author's voice. Or maybe you need a major rewrite. I will follow your instructions and honor your deadline. I have a BA in corporate communications (magna cum laude) and I minored in global economics. I am an enthusiastic journalist who once interviewed U.S. House of Representative Ted Poe, of Texas, as well as the late astronaut Sally Ride. I'm an avid reader of international current events, politics, and history, as well as many of the literary classics. More importantly, I am a Christian who desires to produce high-quality content for each client - large or small. Here's a sample of the work I've completed: * Promoting brands on Social Media: LinkedIn, Meta, Instagram * Adobe Creative Cloud for marketing brochures and social media posts * Article or blog rewrites; ghostwriter * Storytelling obituary writer for funeral announcements, memorials and eulogies * Newsletters * Luxury travel * Real Estate - write blogs, best cities, blogs, edit e-books, create website content * Press releases * Writing coach/tutor * Academic proofreader, edit college admissions essays/scholarship applications * Christian Theology * Digital marketing agencies * Blogs for health and wellness, mental health, OCD, Bulimia * Landing pages for websites * Copywriter * Creative writing, ghostwriting, manuscript edits * B2B * Internal communications and corporate communications * Edit business plans * Autobiographies and personal experience articles * Financial and technical reports; wealth management * HR policies (Well-being, Learning & Development, training, etc.) * Religion, biblical studies, and devotionals God bless, Kathy Pierce
