Resmi Jaimon’s Summary

Published in 64 print and online publications since 2003. I have had the opportunity to work with over 68 editors in six (6) years of freelance writing career. I believe in perfection and writing true stories & those relevant to the Indian culture. Research and deadline are the two ways I am fond of in writing. Without these two elements, the step to writing and being a freelance writer can't be fulfilled.

And I am looking for assignments from leading publications across the globe as well as content writing & copywriting assignments.

WHERE TO FIND MY WORKS:

1. Books / Anthologies
2. International trade magazines
3. Newspapers
4. Magazines - Woman's, travel, lifestyle, real estate, food, computer & technology
5. Websites & Portals
6. Corporate Websites
7. Blogs
8. Coffee Table Books

Specialize in technology-related articles; success stories of start-up and established IT firms; career stories; business how-to's, features and business / company profiles; market reports of specific industries in India; travel how-to's & travelogues; Indian real estate scene; interior design and home improvement; lifestyle and food & recipes.
