A confidently optimistic (and humble) young woman poised to flex her talents and help others. Spent three years studying journalism/graphic arts at Michigan State University. Am currently on hiatus but plan to return fall 2012. Professionally speaking... Have experience as a political-beat reporter for Capital News wire service out of Lansing, MI. Wrote broadcast script as an intern for WJBK Fox 2 News in Detroit, MI. Was a DJ at The Impact — Michigan State's college radio station in East Lansing, MI. Wrote articles for Michigan State University International Magazine. Lead the design team of a small magazine assembled by a business journalism class at Michigan State. On the side... Created company logo/mailbox flier for a friend's small business venture in East Lansing, MI. Designed poster/flyer for a friend's art show in Jackson, MI (twice, same friend). Technology: proficient in Adobe Photoshop and InDesign, GarageBand (music production) and Audacity (audio editing). I also know my way around a digital camera and microphone. End note — Am highly self-motivated and eager to learn. I stay mentally active by reading all I can (mostly non-fiction), maintaining several journals, and creating art. I'm partial to paints, ink drawings and collage. Thank you for your time!

I have transcribed general, corporate, insurance and medical transcription for about seven years from my home. Some of my jobs have gone off shore. Some of my jobs were taken over by doctors doing "template" input. I enjoy transcription very much and would like to continue in this field. Thank you! Kathy

Writing is my specialty, both fiction and nonfiction. I’m looking for extra work in editing and writing. I have over 10 years experience in creative writing with small publishing successes in poetry and short fiction. I also worked for two years as a reporter for a weekly newspaper with news, business, and feature article coverage. I am an English teacher and a Librarian in Denver, CO, working on a second manuscript for publication.

My name is Jensen Baker and I am a young student. I need a little extra money and I have been looking into freelance writing for a while now. I have been refeered to as a "literary genius" by many. I also am a great photographer if the skill is needed. I just need to build a solid fund so I can achieve my goals, and graduate from college with some money to pay off the debt. Thank you, and I hope to be writing for you soon!
