Helping people create compelling stories for social media sites, Web sites, video and print materials.

I need connections with small and microbusiness owners who may benefit from the services of a consultant with skills in writing, Web design, graphic design and/or social media.

I'm always looking for stories, columns and ideas for Michigan Women's Forum, an on-line magazine devoted to informing and inspiring women and the people who love them.
