Professional Writer/Entrepreneur
Greater Memphis Area
Since 2003, I have been writing articles for online publications such as Piker Press. Additionally, I have worked with e-publishers and online educators. My experience ranges from general editing and proofreading to creation of educational texts from a prepared outline. I also wrote the employee handbook for a local company which has been approved and is now fully in use.
I am currently working on my website, which is a content site full of useful information for nonfiction writers. The site is less than six months old, but it is growing and features a monthly e-zine - Getting It Write - that is already gaining a strong subscriber base.
My goals are to continue building my site and invest in others. I expect to be fully self-employed on the web by Summer 2010.

Excellent online learning environment. Allows me to go to school while working and caring for my family. No fuel costs, as I don't have to drive to campus. No personal safety worries, as I'm not walking out of classes in the dark.
Textbooks are included in the tuition.
Highly recommended.

Great small school. Dedicated instructors. Nice campus.
Connected with LSU Baton Rouge, so transfers are relatively painless.
I enjoy reading, writing and spending time with family and friends. I'm always looking for other creative people to learn from and share with.
