I do not do work on spec but will often have relevant samples of existing work I can show you. If I do write a sample for you, I may choose to post it online on my blog under my own name instead of sending it to you as an attachment. If this happens and you choose to purchase the sample, I will then remove it from my blog.
I do not yet have a degree although I will very likely pursue that some day. My writing skills come from a love of writing and plenty of writing practice and strong research and business skills. Not to brag but I did always get straight A's in English.
I will discuss your turnaround time on your writing project with you when we arrange the project. I can often work quickly and will never agree to a deadline unless I'm sure I can meet it.
I have a small team of freelance writers that take work from me but all new clients are seen to by myself until an established relationship has been formed and I know exactly what the client wants. Only after determining the full scope and requirements of a project will I consider training one of my team members on how to work on the project. I oversee all work and randomly check work with anti-plagiarism tools. I only work with writing team members have the same level of commitment to quality as I do.
Yes! I detest plagiarism and believe strongly that the Internet needs informative and entertaining quality content instead of regurgitated or recycled words. In the unlikely event that a project does not appear unique enough for your needs, talk to me and I will have it fixed.
Sorry, until you are an established client I need all work arrangements solidified up front to protect myself and my team. I need 50% up front and 50% on delivery for small projects and for larger projects may arrange an interim payment plan with you but I cannot provide work to new clients without some form of protection for myself. I'm sure you understand. Once clients are established, we can set up payment terms. Most established clients need to pay invoices within five business days.
I often provide business services such as community forum management, project management, mentoring and SEO consultations for clients. Talk to me about your needs.
I am never far away from the computer. It seems to think it is an extension of me. I'm often seen working early in the morning and late at night and I hate to admit it...even Sundays. If I'm ever out of the office for an extended period of time (which is rare) I will provide established clients with a back-up contact for emergencies.
