VIRTUAL AUTHOR ASSISTANT

Writers want to write not handle all the business that goes along with the job. As your virtual personal assistant, I can take a load off in an economical and efficient way. Need to delegate tasks so you can focus more on the writing? Need someone for a few hours a week/month? Or just for a special project? I can help you with that.

I have ten years experience in advertising as a copywriter/marketing executive/media buyer. I’ve written advertising copy, brochures, newsletters and done voice-overs for radio/television commercials. Member of RWA since 2003. Local chapter retreat coordinator for the last 4 years and incoming President. I’ve spent the last 20 years scheduling, managing and homeschooling my son who is now in college. My brain is ready for an adult challenge.

I am organized, detail-oriented and very motivated. I’m willing to learn how you want things done. Once I know what you want I can work independently. And if I can’t do it, I’ll find the right person for you who can.

Not sure if you really need an assistant? We can go over a list of what you do now and where you want to be. Then discuss ways I could be helpful to you.

Don’t see what you need on the list? Ask. I’m always willing to try new things.
