My name is Hazel Hall (she/her), and I am a writer with a love for unique stories that highlight traditionally underrepresented voices.

If your blog isn't pulling traffic or your pages aren't turning visitors into customers, that's the gap I close. Most writing either ranks but bores people, or sounds nice but sits invisible on page 4 of Google. I do both at once: search-aligned and genuinely good to read. 𝐖𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐈 𝐖𝐑𝐈𝐓𝐄 📌 Blogs & long-form that earns rankings As an SEO blog writer for SaaS companies and a B2B content writer, I build guides, comparison pages, "best-of" roundups, and tutorials around real search intent.

As a landing page copywriter - including a landing page copywriter for ecommerce - I build clean flow: headline → proof → CTA. For funnels and paid traffic, you get a conversion-focused website copywriter who writes to the click, not just the word count. 📌 Specialized content that fills the gaps SEO content writer for blogs and landing pages, SEO guest post writer drafts (angle → outline → published-ready article), plus ghostwriting and short scripts when a project needs voice and story.

As a published writer with a degree in literature and ten years of editing experience, I understand writing from every perspective. I have dedicated my life to writing, so if you want someone that’s passionate, look no further. I love editing of all kinds, and will work in whatever capacity you need, whether as a proofreader, copy editor, or developmental editor. I will work with you every step of the way, maintaining your voice and your vision. You have a story to tell, and I can help elevate it, while ensuring your heart is still at the forefront. Genres I have worked with the most: • Young Adult (all genres) • Romance (sweet & dark) • Science Fiction/Fantasy • Literary Fiction • Mystery/Thriller • Historical • Self-Help Words are important, and I will make sure that yours reflect you brilliantly.

I miss the days when getting jobs was based on talent and skill and not on who had the most money to buy connections! A slap in the face to us starving artists aside, here's a little about me: I have nearly 20 years of experience in the writing world. I have done everything from serving as a technical writer for the government to serving as director of marketing for an educational therapy institute. I can write long-form or short-form copy and everything from landing pages to radio spots to scripts for videos and email copy. A few of my niches include mental health, wellness, pets, lifestyle, home improvement, cannabis, wine, food, candy, and parenting. I have also worked with tons of clients in the fashion industry, even though I wear socks with sandals. I have loads of experience in marketing, including SEO optimization, email funnels, lead magnets, paid ads, A/B testing, and social media. My rate is fairly flexible, especially if your industry is one I'm passionate about (such as mental health, sustainability, or animals). What you'll get from me is a driven, smart, and efficient writer, editor, and marketer who is extremely creative and very easy to work with (check out my reviews). What you won't get is a disappearing act, dishonesty, or half an effort (as online job portals have begun to feel more like dating apps, I feel like I should mention all this). I am available for one-time jobs as well as long-term contracts. I have clients I met on here that I've worked with for nearly a decade. Thanks for reading this and have a great day!

I am an internationally award-winning, professional writer who has been earning my living from writing for the past nearly 20 years. I'm efficient, never miss a deadline, and always meet or surpass clients' expectations. I have more than thirty published works of fiction in my own name with established publishers such as Penguin-Random House, Macmillan, Oxford University Press, and Cambridge University Press. My books are for readers from the early reading stages to adults, so I have wide and varied experience. I was born in the USA, but have lived in Botswana for the last thirty years. Besides being a native English speaker, I have wide experience in American English and British English, which we use in Botswana. I have won or been short-listed for numerous writing awards, including: The Bessie Head Literary Prize, The Caine Prize, The Golden Baobab Prize (an African prize for children's' writing, which I have won twice), the Commonwealth Short Story Prize, to only mention a few. I was Botswana's Creative Writer of the Year in 2007. My historical novel, The Scattering (Penguin 2016) won Best International Fiction Book at the 2017 Sharjah International Book Fair in the UAE. The North American rights for this book have now been bought by Waveland Press (USA). My short stories have been published in magazines and anthologies around the world. My writing has been translated into Slovakian, French, Swedish, and soon into Icelandic. I have written numerous radio scripts, as well as two thirteen-part television dramas for Botswana Television. I regularly write computer story games too. Besides my creative writing, I wrote a weekly column for Botswana's only private national daily newspaper, Mmegi, for many years and have, in the past, written a column for The New Internationalist (UK). My freelance non-fiction articles have appeared in magazines in Canada, UK, Australia, Nigeria, Kenya, South Africa, and USA, only to mention a few.

Writing a book is a significant achievement, and every manuscript deserves careful, thoughtful editing. As a Top Rated Book Editor with a 100% Job Success Score,90 plus successfully completed projects, and a PhD in English Literature, I work closely with authors to strengthen their manuscripts while preserving their unique voice and style. I edit novels, memoirs, poetry, children’s books, and other book-length manuscripts. And my services include developmental editing, line and copy editing, beta reading with detailed feedback, proofreading for final polish, poetry editing that refines imagery and rhythm, and children’s book editing with attention to age-appropriate language and engaging storytelling. Authors choose to work with me for detailed, constructive feedback, clear communication, reliable delivery, and respect for each writer’s unique voice. Whether you’re writing your first manuscript or preparing your work for publication, I help make it polished, compelling, and ready for readers while staying true to your vision. I’d love to hear about your project.

"Someone once asked me if I was stranded on a desert island what book I would bring?...How to build a boat" -Steve Wright I am a big fan of saying and teaching the term "I don't know but I will find out." There is so much in the world that an individual doesn't know, but that shouldn't stop anyone from gaining more knowledge. That is why I love writing so much, the research that goes into it provides an exciting journey to a work of accomplishment! I am a mom, a barista, a girlfriend, an animal lover, and I love to have fun. I am new to writing as a career, but it has been my dream since I was a small child. I have shaken off the non supporters in my life and I am here to show my talent and have high hopes of one day saying "I am a writer" when someone asks me what I do for a living. So, if you are stuck and would like to hire me, I will put down my "how to build a boat" book and jump into your adventure!
