Biography

Writer/Editor/Proofreader
Writing & Editing
Anna
Wilkes
Tallahassee, Florida Area
I'm an experienced content and copyeditor with a history of academic, professional, and creative writing and editing contracts. I specialize in content restructuring, article spinning, line editing, and tone adjustments. I'm a native English speaker with a Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing from Rutgers University-Newark and seven years of experience teaching and tutoring English at the elementary through college levels.
My writing is adaptable to a variety of audiences and purposes; I've written business proposals, sales emails, product descriptions, personal correspondences, formal appeal letters, technical manuals, press releases, about me pages, and blog posts. I've edited all of the above plus academic theses and personal statements.
I'm available to write about a variety of subjects, and I have access to top-notch research tools as well. As my clients can assure you, I work very quickly without sacrificing quality. Rather than stiff, lifeless sales copy, I can provide you lively texts that are compelling as well as informative. As a creative writer first and foremost, I always strive for natural-sounding prose that keeps the reader engaged.
