Good day:
I am a professional writer/editor who can provide you with long-term services. I am now retired and offer my professional services both offline and online.
As per your request, I have submitted my rates via PM. NOTE: The rate in the "bid" field is simply there to allow this application to proceed. It is NOT my actual bid.
My 30-plus years as a journalist/editor/publisher makes me a perfect fit for the opportunity you present.
As a result of so many years in the news industry, I have gained extensive experience in research, writing and editing and managing the entire newspaper operation. My career included tenures as reporter/photographer, bureau chief, news editor, city editor and managing editor.
My final 13 years in the industry I was a publisher with Canada's second largest news giant. In that position, I was in charge of the day-to-day operation of the business.
No project is too small for me. If a project is important to you, it is important enough to me to give you my best effort.
Known as a perfectionist, I have spent a lifetime cultivating the skills that have earned me a number of journalistic awards. These include
photography, writing, editing, page layout and overall excellence in newspaper production.
My life as a journalist has allowed me to develop some specialized skills that make me a very good writer, and I know I will please you with my efforts.
This is demonstrated by the quality product you will receive from me each and every time you utilize my services.
As regards deadlines, there is no forgiveness in the publishing industry.
My entire working life has been governed by strict deadlines, so I am very much in tune with any target dates you might assign to your projects. I
am reliable and punctual and you will always have your product on time, and often early.
Now that I have taken my place among the retired, I have time to devote to your project. I am not a Snowbird, spending months in warmer climates, nor do I take extended vacations. Being retired, I do, however, like to take jaunts with my wife in pursuit of our hobby of treasure hunting. I am happy to work those around your requirements.
Please see my PM for my rates as per your request...
