Professional Experience
Most people are shocked when they hear I was the editor-in-chief of Playgirl magazine! I now write for national magazines, covering sex, relationships and other topics with a humorous twist.
Last week I interviewed a celebrity on a hit TV show and penned an in-depth piece on celibacy among young people in America.
If you are looking for a writer who will go get the story, I'm your woman. I recently got in a rental car and drove to Princeton University where I mixed among the students to get the real scoop on the school streaking team!
I am ready to take on article assignments. I can also help you ghost write your idea. I have plenty of on-camera and on-air experience (Sirius Radio, VH-1, Fox News, O'Reilly Factor) if you are looking for an expert who will amuse and provoke!
I just completed my first novel. Check out my website www.ronniekoenig.com and my blog http://ronniekoenig.blogspot.com/! I want to work with you!
