I am interested in applying for a position within your company. I am currently a fiction writer who produces full length novels, and am in the process of publication. I also have many short stories that I have produced for companies who are interested. However, I am looking forward to working within different fields of the writing community. I am an enthusiastic hard working writer who is willing and able to put the time and effort to produce quality writing. The education and courses that I have completed have all in some way contributed to the writing skills in which I now possess.

I also have the ability to create a story from fiction and non fiction, and retain the proper research methods to add an element of truth when needed.
