Hi. I’m Marie.
About me
I like telling stories. So here’s mine.
I’m an Oregonian, a Scorpio, a singer in the shower, and a fan of puns.
I have a B.A. in English and an M.A. in Writing, with a concentration in Book Publishing. Both were obtained at Portland State University.
I successfully finished NaNoWriMo for the first time because I was deeply annoyed by an Arthurian Literature class as an undergrad.
I think forests are really cool.
One time I was eating at a nice restaurant and the napkin caught on fire so I dunked it in my water glass because I panicked.
My favorite color is green.
I love Dungeons & Dragons, Critical Role, making things, learning new crafts, and collecting very cool rocks.
Skills
I get to do a lot of cool things…
Here are some of the things I like to do:
Developmental editing for fiction and nonfiction.
Super-stealth-mode ghostwriting
Crafting sales pages that delight and entice.
Refining interviews and transcripts and creating case studies.
Copywriting and blogging (so that you don’t have to.)
Writing short stories.
Making tea and then forgetting that I made tea and accumulating several cold cups of tea on my desk for some reason.
Buds
…with cool people.
Here are some of the people I’ve worked with:
Lacy Boggs @ The Content Direction Agency
Bryna Haynes @ WorldChangers Media
Karyn Kelbaugh @ Hey Karyn
