"A+ writer, highly recommended. Matt writes at top quality and delivers on time." "Matthew was great, we needed something done soon before releasing our website and he was able to help right away." =================================================================== Are you tired of bland and lazy writing? Me too! Let's get to work! I'm a seasoned writer and editor with a special focus on art, design and technology. In recent projects, I've worked with startups who want to refine their written voice and their overall public-facing message. I enjoy this process of simplifying jargon and distilling the essence of what makes your company, brand or project unique. I'm always looking to find new ways for writing to function in a given project, be it through a landing page, an email blast, a product description or a company bio. My goal is to produce innovative copy that makes readers trust your vision and take action. =================================================================== WRITING You want words that can jump off of the screen or page, catching a reader's eye in a flash. You want your copy clear and consistent, as though it fell from the sky perfectly formed. You want to communicate with a diverse readership through direct writing. As a writer, I can take your general ideas and transform them into crisp, readable copy that efficiently targets your desired audience. EDITING You want text that gets straight to the point. You want your words to say what you really mean -- not always an easy task. You want your thoughts on the page, website or social media to be well-organized and concise. In editing, I'm able to bring concision and brevity to your projects, regardless of their initial state. MORE ABOUT ME: I'm a Gemini, an active cyclist and, many moons ago, was voted by my high school class as "The Person You'd Most Want to Be Stuck on a Desert Island With" (their wording, not mine, thus the bad syntax...). If you've read this far, you must be somewhat interested. What kind of project are you working on? Get in touch!
