  ODesk

  Sept 2010 - Sept 2012

  Freelance Writer

  Freelance work included proofreading novels for independent authors, advising of possible improvements to syntax / grammar and pointing out plot holes. Feedback received from clients during this period was very positive; all were grateful for the effort I would go to ensuring they received good value for money.I also took a position as a ghost-writer for a small children's publishing house. The work here included creating entirely new characters for children's novels, and writing stories surrounding those characters. The books are now for sale online and in bookstores.Some of my own 'for-fun' writing was also picked up by a teaching resources website, where it is currently available for purchase. Show less

  Jottify

  Jan 2012 - Jan 2015

  Online Community Manager

  Jottify is an online community of writers which allows people to share their work in order to gain feedback, constructive criticism or just to allow the work to be read. Users on the site are generally very friendly and those who are admired by their peers often later find themselves with enough confidence to submit their work into competitions and magazines. The role of community manager for Jottify includes responding to emails from users who may be experiencing issues or have general queries; occasionally users may email just to see how we are doing! Recently, I have been writing blog posts which have centered around users on the site, allowing them to network with each other and learn about influences on one another's writing. Show less
