For over years I have worked as a freelance writer for magazines, newspapers, and childrens books. I create and manage my own publicity, and design and maintain my own website. My freelance career has taught me organization, time management, and dedication in the face of rejection. Whether I am writing or speaking, it is this dedication to creative passion that I try to pass on to others.
