Marilyn Freedman

North Andover, MA

EditorWriterOther, Specify

An experienced developmental editor and ghostwriter, I've edited everything from economics to human sexuality to information technology. I've ghostwritten books on career development, real estate investing, innovative business in the video game industry, alternative medicine, and management consulting. I even co-wrote a play, Theater for Justice's "The Keys." I'm wildly curious and find most topics interesting. My favorite question is why. I'm a congenial collaborator, and my most recent client, a successful real estate entrepreneur, calls me his angel writer.

I am a geek of many colors with a passion for helping people. With 6 years of niche reporting and email marketing, 8 years of Non-Profit administrative experience, and recently turned part-time freelance project manager. I am your answer to problem solving on the fly and an healthy sense of humor. I am fluent in geek (broken Klingon and Quenya), but I am also passionate about words and how they move people on a daily basis. People refer to me when something on the internet is too ...nerdy to understand. I’ve been called “quirky”, “organized” and “attentive to details”, all of which fit. My area of expertise include: email marketing, pop culture journalism, content marketing and SEO, conversational web copy, candid photography, event planning, niche blogging, and agile mindset.

Rita Lewis

Potomac, MD

Content Editor (online)Web DesignerSocial Media

Designing web sites is a passion. As a computer expert, I've given lectures, taught classes, written books, and conducted research, but nothing satisfies my curiosity for technology, arts, and electronic media like web design. Taking a simple concept and turning it into a quality marketing device is my singular goal, and I relish each step in that process. I am expert in using both PHP-based Open Source content management systems, such as Joomla/Mambo, WordPress, OSCommerce, or HTML to build store fronts, brochure-type, and blog sites for non-profit and small-business clients.
