Professional Experience

I'm as dependable as the pizza guy. I deliver entertaining and informative words in print and on TV. Hot right out of the box, you won't need to reheat my service articles or profiles. I reach 90 million homes as a guest host on QVC. I also created and host TheLuxeLady.com and my lifestyle segments have been featured on local morning TV shows. I focus on how to live a five-star life regardless of budget. I've been published in Glamour, Success and many other national and regional magazines. I've won two Writer's Digest awards and I am currently working on a non-fiction book, represented by the fabulous folks at Folio Literary Agency. Are you hungry for a writer who delivers articles in your publication's tone with a unique voice? Let me take your order. www.susanmatthews.com www.theluxelady.com www.susanamatthews.blogspot.com
