I am a highly creative, native English-speaking writer and editor, with a degree in English: Creative Writing, and 15 years of professional experience, including a BAFTA nomination for the BBC television series Horrible Histories. Here on Upwork, I'm lucky enough to ghost write/edit on a huge range of different projects, working with creative and corporate clients from all over the world. My job is to make your YouTube video, non-fiction e-book, novel, explainer video, e-training course, company commercial, website copy or comedy sketch - the list goes on! - the very best it can be. I pride myself on my ability to quickly find/mimic the right voice, and best way to tell any story, share any content or sell any brand. Having previously worked as a television producer, across large, multi-disciplinary teams, I enjoy working with people as much as I do ideas, and I invite you to check out the testimonials on my profile, and read my clients' feedback. Away from work I love music, football, food, walking, travel and…writing! My critically-acclaimed debut novel Don't Worry, Everything Is Going To Be Amazing was published in 2020 under the pen name Billy Moran, whilst on the non-fiction side, 50 Shades of Gravy: The Cookbook (by IM Pliant) was a best-seller shipping over 10,000 copies. I have also run my own small publishing imprint releasing fiction and non-fiction books by other TV writers, which I edited. If you'd like a quote, please share your project spec, and I'll be happy to jump on a call.

Founders do not build great companies and legacies by living boring lives. You get to where you are today by taking great risks, not unlike epic heroes of the world’s most inspiring stories. Let’s record that journey together and turn it into an epic book. WHY HIRE ME? I take immense pride in hearing each author’s unique voice and making it sing out on the page. (I can’t make you a better singer, though.) For over nine years, I have worked with a wide range of clients to produce bestselling books. More importantly, I have worked with clients to transform lives. Books are a fantastic way to introduce yourself to your community on speaking tours, through a university course, or as a slightly larger version of your business card. I’m passionate about helping you achieve your goals through this book. In addition to writing nonfiction books, I also write fiction. Storytelling is my passion, and I’m pretty darn good at it, too. I know that all founders undergo their own version of the hero’s journey. You’ve heeded the call to adventure. You’ve undergone trials and tests. You’ve slayed the dragon, grown from your experiences, and now you want to return and help others on their journey. All of that makes for a pretty damn good book. My clients read early drafts of their books with anticipation…even though they’ve lived it! Have you got an epic tale to tell? I can’t wait to hear it. If your life feels stranger than fiction, even better. Let me capture your story and share it with the world. PROCESS Give me a few hours of your time and we can make magic. Here’s my process: * We book a strategy session to discuss your outline, timeline, and goals for the book. * We build an outline and begin collecting content through weekly interviews. * I write your manuscript while you sit on the beach, enjoy a martini lunch, or spend time with your family. (Beach trip not included in my fees.) * We discuss the first draft and any necessary rewrites or edits. You discuss how happy you are with your friends, family, and team. * I can connect you with a self-publishing partner or hybrid publisher. If you intend to pitch your book to agents and traditional publishers, I can create those materials for an extra fee. The overall process takes between six to nine months. TESTIMONIALS Here’s what my clients have had to say about working with me: "Megan is extremely talented at what she does. Her writing is excellent but moreover she was very responsive to all messages and was able to finish the project before the deadline. We were writing a complete book so it wasn't small job, either. An excellent writer that I highly recommend for anyone, jobs large or small." "Surprised how fast the work was completed and the tone & content are spot on!" "Working with Megan has been wonderful! She is professional, extremely punctual, a fantastic communicator, and has a pleasant easy-going nature. She was able to synthesize some ideas I had, into a very creative, concise and relevant manuscript. I'm grateful to have found her and look forward to her continued project collaboration. Without reserve, I highly recommend Megan for any creative writing needs!" "Working with Megan was a real pleasure! She's very talented, very responsive, and very professional." "Megan was so great to work with! She is professional, friendly, and super smart. Her creativity and willingness to go above and beyond was appreciated. I will look forward to working with her in the future." GET IN CONTACT WITH ME You’ve lived it. Let’s write it. Send me a message to learn more about how I can help you write an epic book.

On Upwork I'm known as Words-Are-My-Biz. Think of me as a Content Whisperer and Messaging Master. A gifted storyteller, dedicated to helping clients discover and tell theirs. I say this unabashedly with complete confidence. The proof, of course, is the words. Today, finding the right words is more important than ever, and I strive to under-promise but over-deliver. The name of my company says it all: words-are-my-biz And my philosophy is simple: The right words sell. The wrong words leave sales on the table. WHO I AM. I’m a professional writer living in Portland, Oregon with a lifelong passion for the power of the written word. I’ve written everything from novels to blogs, sales collateral to web content, ad copy to letters, business proposals to sales plans and training manuals. Not to mention a few thousand papers getting my four kids through high school and college. I love what I do. I approach every job intent on finding a happy ending and we aren't finished until we get there. At a time of life when most guys my age have either hung it up or given up, I'm doing the best work of my life. HOW I GOT HERE. I bring more than thirty years of sales and marketing business management experience to every project, and by this I’m talking about major corporations to mid-size companies and start-ups, working in fields including software, real estate, law, publishing, advertising and professional services. I confess to having a particular fondness for high degree-of-difficulty challenges. They bring out my best which is very good. HOW I DO WHAT I DO. Every engagement starts with conversation. Asking questions, lots of them, and listening and considering what I hear, followed by collaborative brainstorming to develop a plan we both embrace with confidence and enthusiasm. As you seek synergy within your organization, I seek it with my clients. It pays huge dividends. The common thread is in finding the way to communicate more effectively, internally and externally, with staff, customers and prospects. The common challenge is in identifying the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and unique competitive factors confronting each client. TO LEARN MORE ABOUT ME. Read what my clients have to say about their experience working with me and my pledge to arrive at a happy ending, every time with every assignment. There are hundreds of reviews from clients that have become friends in virtually every industry and over thirty countries around the world. I look forward to hearing from you but know that I've made my practice not to take on work without conversation to first ensure a mutual fit. It's the path to happy, successful ending. Until then, wishing you good health and great success. andrew

The war against the machines have begun, and I'm a soldier on the literary battlefield. The LLMs have proved that AI can write, but, guess what, I am better because I can make you feel! My genetic code makes me a sentient creative, which is the one thing all the programmers in the world will never replicate. So, if you still believe in human intelligence, and you desire 100% human-written content, I want you to know that I'm your guy. For over four years, I have written proofread, and edited countless lines of text to produce valuable literary solutions for my clients. My journey as a freelance writer has taken me into a myriad of niches, ranging from the stilted halls of law to the derisive basements of comedy. And, as a result, I have gained the experience needed to execute complex projects while prioritizing customer satisfaction. I am forever grateful for every opportunity I get to harness my ability to transform ideas into impactful compositions and positively position my clients' businesses. Why Do I Write? Every word is essential to me; if I'm being honest, words are all I have. Words are the ingredients that realize my imagination: They are my only tools. I also have a sense of humor—people say so—that regularly finds its way into my works, and my knowledge of style and tone makes me comfortable in a host of disciplines. So, whether it's a short story, a movie script, an article, web writing, copywriting, or ghostwriting about actual ghosts, I can handle it. You can trust me to employ my expertise to improve your business and help you tell an old story from a fresh perspective with intriguing insights. Also, 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 also post articles on Medium at Ishola Quwam and blog on Akowekowura.wordpress.com.
