Get to Know Your Fellow Freelancers - A New Gallery of Writers

By , About.com Guide   November 17, 2009

Follow me on:

We all have wisdom to share-- whether we've been writing 10 years or 10 months. That's why I put together this gallery of freelance writer profiles. Take a look at the trials and successes of these four freelance writers, whose experience ranges from 10+ years and rubbing elbows with Helen Steiner Rice to just months. 

Are there any freelance writers with interesting careers that you'd like to see join the series? If so, leave their name in the comments and I may contact them for the next set. The freelance writer series will be added to, and is arranged by experience level, so check back often!

What a great idea, Allena. I’d love to be featured and can also recommend Dana Prince, who writes on my blog, and Suzanne James of Inspired Author.

Definitely I would like to profile you Sharon. I’ve also read some interesting things by Dana recently, too.

I’m going to get about 5-10 names together and then spend about a week or two bolstering the gallery, and then start over after that! Keep the suggestions coming.

What a good idea, Allena! I’d be happy to be profiled, if I’d be a good fit for what you’re doing, and I’m sure there are others from NAIWE who would be interesting as well.

Celeste Ward-Altus would be a good one to cover. She’s only been freelance for a couple of years, but she does all sorts of assignments — from corporate communication to Britney Spears.

I, too, would happy to be profiled if you’re interested.

I am a freelance writer/editor. I’d love to be featured in the next round. I think it’s great that we can have all of us writers/editors listed in one place. Very handy.
