What Lynda does

I work with my clients to enhance their image, sales and ROI through creative copywriting and coaching.  In addition to writing their brochures, Web sites, newsletters--you name it--I also teach my clients how to be better writers.  Like the old adage about teaching someone to fish, I don't just dot their Is and cross their Ts, I teach them how to get the results they want through targeted and creative writing.

What Lynda does best

I spent 15 years as a journalist, so I know how to tell compelling stories, whether that's for a magazine or newspaper article or a brochure, newsletter or Web site.  People love to read stories, not just the rat-a-tat-tat of facts.  I also specialize in people profiles--from top executives to the unsung heroes who accomplish so much.

Education

Emory University, Atlanta, Georgia

Always learning through continuing ed. classes and reading.  I studied speech writing while living in Washington, D.C.

Experience

I have been a writer for 25 years, writing for national magazines and newspapers, such as Southern Living, Yoga Journal, Americanstyle, Country Living, Seattle Post-Intelligencer, Atlanta Journal-Constitution and the online division on the Washington Post.
