Stephen S.

Journalist/Writer/Spanish Translator

OG Not AI. Offering "Au I" - Authentic Intelligence - with 40 years' experience as a journalist and writer who has worked across genres with success as a novelist and screenwriter; all of which I view as sticking to the same writer's ribs. Professionalism personified, I've cultivated an ability to meet daily deadlines during years of work as a special correspondent for Bloomberg Industry Group (nee, BNA), having published over 3,000 clips of "hard copy" coverage whilst pursuing a parallel literary career; a writer's writer who would be "master" class in a medieval scribes' guild. I'm fluent in spoken and written Spanish, having lived and worked as a reporter in Spain for four years in the 1990s.
