500/500™ 

For $500, I will give you 500 words.
I'm an excellent writer for all occasions and every challenge. I love to help people who have an idea and want to share it with the world (or even if it's to share with just a few people).

Have a story to tell? A message to share? A position to take? A presentation to make? A proposal to write? A need for content? Are you struggling with where to begin or how to crystallize what you have to say into a thoughtful, compelling narrative? Maybe you're just too busy to get it done?

Give me the details and I'll get it done for you. Here's how 500/500 works:

• Give me the assignment, the details and a deadline
• I'll provide to you a first draft for your review and comment, which you'll return to me
• I'll then deliver to you a second draft that is usually in final form.

​Need more than 500 words? Let's talk!
