The Freelance Life

After leaving my job to become a full-time freelance writer in 2005, I'm finally creating a page. I had a domain name for a while but I never did anything with it, so now's the time.

I'm living a version of the dream I always had for myself. I get to sit around and write all day--and get paid for it. Meanwhile, I'm caring for my daughter and two dogs, and looking forward to the time when my husband will walk through the door and relieve me of a small slice of the insanity, at least.

It's not exactly what I planned out, but hey, what good stories come from the events you plan?

I do a little bit of everything when it comes to writing. I love working on poetry and fiction (I have a novel I've been working on for a while, but it's nowhere near done), writing for magazines, and weaving wit and facts with keyword counts online (SEO and all that jazz). There's almost no type of writing I won't take a crack at.
