I write things.

Sounds simple. It's not.

 
 

Writing's not just putting pen to paper or fingers to keyboard or stylus to pad.

I see the stories others don't, in your company and its people. I can separate the wheat from the chaff (and distinguish the timely hook from the general topic). I know how to develop a beat and cultivate sources, how to turn reluctant participants -- specialists, researchers, and occupants of the C-suite -- into enthusiastic partisans of talking to the public. I know how to research and when and where to employ the data gained from such research.

I know how to design editorial strategy that compliments your marketing and growth plans and I have the practical skills to implement that strategy.

I write things.
