What makes you different from other freelance writers?

We writers like to think we’re special…but I can prove I am:

• I was trained as a journalist, which means accuracy and integrity are top priorities. I studied at the University of Florida’s College of Journalism and Communications (go Gators!), where a single fact error is an automatic failure. As a result, I triple-check my work to ensure accuracy.

• I write all content myself—no farming out to subcontractors. When you work with me, you work with me—no one else. This ensures you get exactly what you hired me for.

• I don’t use AI, so you can breathe easy knowing your content isn’t plagiarized, mundane, or otherwise subpar (no offense, ChatGPT). Technology is incredible, but generative AI is still a relatively new tool. There are still issues with privacy, creativity, and ethics.
  
  For instance, ChatGPT may be trained on user inputs, raising important privacy concerns. I don’t want my clients’ sensitive information used by ChatGPT without permission.

  
  Another example is the issue of intellectual property. ChatGPT is trained on data found on the internet, but does not cite its sources. Last time I checked, that’s plagiarism, and I don’t do that.

  
  Now, having said all of that, I am happy to incorporate AI into my writing process if you would like me to. This would be for things such as using ChatGPT for background research or outlining. I don’t copy-paste anything ChatGPT gives me.

• I have 10+ years of experience in the startup and tech industries. Quirky, highly tolerant of risk, unconventional, fast-paced. I get your vibe, and I speak your language.

What’s the process to get started with you?

Step 1: Email me. Shoot me a quick message about what you’re looking for.

Step 2: Optional 30-minute discovery call. If you’d like, book a 30-minute call to talk through your needs and ask any questions.

Step 3: I deep-dive to understand your business, your brand, your needs. Once you decide to work with me, I’ll ask you for any materials I need to get started, such as a style guide (if you have one), access to a product demo (so I can understand your product deeply), and deadlines and turnaround times.

Step 4: I get to writing! You do what you do best. From there, working with me is very hands-off. I don’t need hand-holding. I do my job so you can do yours.

What are your rates?

My rates range from $0.75-$1 per word.

What affects this rate?

• Complexity of the topic. If the topic is highly complex and requires more research on my part, the rate will go up.

• Frequency and duration of our engagement. If you can promise me a steady stream of work, I thank you with a discounted rate.

• Rigidity of your style guides and specifications. I actually prefer that you give me fewer specifications. I don’t need detailed, three-page creative briefs—that creates more work for me to try to squeeze my work into your very specific guidelines. Giving me more creative freedom means you’ll pay less. Win-win for the both of us.
