Penny S.
Exceptionally good with words
I am a professional writer with vast and varied experience. I have written countless newspaper and magazine articles and written and produced many books. I have prepared and circulated press releases, done copywriting for brochures, adverts and packaging, and have written college books and study guides. Since joining Elance (now Upwork) in April 2009, I have written numerous articles, SEO web content and blog posts. I have written ebooks, and have done research, editing, proofreading and indexing jobs. I excel in providing good quality, effective web content. My interests and expertise are varied, as my resume shows. And I have a huge amount of experience that enables me to work for employers all over the world. I welcome new challenges. I have a Bachelor of Social Science degree with majors in English, Social Anthropology, Comparative African Government, and Economic History. I also studied sociology, psychology, and social work. The books I have written relate mostly to home decorating, home improvement, DIY, and home construction. I have also written several books about horses. All of these were published in hard copy and sold in reputable bookshops, and many have been available via Amazon. The college books and courses I have written range from plumbing, concrete work, and welding, to landscaping, photography, and child care. I am a keen gardener and love doing creative crafts. I enjoy cooking and take an active interest in everything health related. I walk regularly and have completed many half marathons. What can I do for you?
