About
I am a professional freelance writer. My specialties include finance writing as well as insurance, travel and business writing.
My career in these specialties began when I worked as a writer and editor for Air Force News Agency (1992-2005), doing radio, television and Internet features on military finance, credit, travel and career issues.
After leaving the military to pursue freelance writing, I’ve covered these topics for a wide range of clients including FHALoan.com, Walmart.com, MilitaryHub.com, American Fitness, VALoans.com, Ensurance.com, Chicagoland Business Elite Magazine, InstantCarInsurance.com, How Stuff Works, Barrington Magazine, and many others.
Read My Work
You can find my business writing, finance and related articles in a variety of places including FHA.com, and the Communication Channel at HowStuffWorks. You can also read my downloadable PDF e-book, VA Loans 101, hosted by VALoans.com.
What I Bring to the Table
I am not just an insurance and finance writer, travel blogger, and business and marketing writer. I am also heavily invested in social media. I don’t just write; I also promote my work on StumbleUpon, Twitter, Digg, Reddit, Facebook and elsewhere. When I go to work for a client or editor, I am dedicated to driving traffic to my material. I am a firm believer in sending traffic to the websites running my work.
I want to be clear–I do not believe in spam or annoying use of social media. I’ve rejected plenty of requests to use such tactics, preferring to send traffic to my writing in legitimate, effective ways.
Hire Me
Do you need a professional finance writer? Someone who specializes in insurance, credit, travel, and business writing? I am available to write articles, website content, blogs, newsletters and promotional material on finance, business, insurance, and travel.
My most recent projects include an e-book about tax issues for the self-employed, and a series of articles on the Credit Card Accountability Responsibility and Disclosure Act of 2009, and a series on home equity conversion mortgages for FHAcom.
My other writing includes essays in the forthcoming paperback To Japan With Love from Things Asian Press, and budget travel blog posts for CheapToday.com. I’m also the founder and editor of Freelance-Zone.com, an advice blog for freelance writers.
