Hi! I Write Things!
Pen for hire with about a decade and a half of experience.
I put words (mainly) on the internet about a variety of topics including, but not limited to: Travel, weird history, books, pets, folklore and urban legends, web culture, food and wine, home, shopping and commerce writing, true crime, science and health, career, and money.
My specialty: Eeriness. Oddities. Curiosities. Things that make you go, "Ah!", "Hmmm," or "Eh?"
In a previous life: I directed and stage managed live theatre.
Pronouns: She/her.
Please no AI pitches! Not interested.
