Welcome to my Author's Page!

I enjoy writing as an opportunity to learn new things. I hold a Bachelor's of Arts in Political Science, concentration Leadership Studies, with a minor in English Literature from Christopher Newport University, a small liberal arts university in Newport News, VA.

My wonderful husband and I now live just outside Charleston, SC to support his military career. We have traveled all over the world together, and are looking forward to a few years of quiet. Both of us are active members of the open source community, founding members of the Charleston, SC LInux Users Group. I also volunteered a year for the Fedora Project as a documentation editor.

I am delighted I was able to flee from corporate America before I lost track of who I am, and that I am fortunate enough to have the opportunity to work from home. My interests are varied, and there isn't really a subject I am too timid to tackle.

My rates are negotiable, depending on the work desired. I tend to price articles where I chose the subject matter higher than those where subjects are requested. Half the battle as a writer is just narrowing down the subject to write on, so I give a little credit that private requests alleviate that step of work.

Thanks for stopping by, and I look forward to a successful writing career with Constant Content. :)
