Freelance.        

Picture
As a freelance writer, I create and edit whatever my partners need. Because of my background in gaming, entertainment, science fiction, mental health,  environmental sciences, literary analyses, and more, I can write about most anything.  

Thanks, internet. 

My main focus when freelancing is to create clever, funny, and accessible pieces that can appeal to the average reader and academics. Smart stories don't have to be lightyears away.

Thank you and hope to hear from you soon!

"Stephanie has been an invaluable member of The Offbeat Literary Journal staff. Not only has she handled—and very well, I might add—the regular work of submissions reading, editing, and layout, she managed our editorial meetings and single-handled implemented and oversaw our entire social media strategy during her time with us. In particular, she created and managed a regular blog series—an element of outreach entirely new to our engagement efforts. She solicited writers and scheduled the series of posts with care to topic and timing, succeeding not only in featuring a wide range of topics—from media recommendations to humor pieces to staff and contributor interviews—but also leading us to an exponential increase in followers, readers, and customers. For the first time in our publication’s history, we now have frequent interactions with an ever-growing online following, and our sales and increased visibility prove the value of her efforts. Plus, she even wrote a few posts herself. Check her out! It’ll be more than worth your time."
