web writing & editing

People tell me to get a niche.

You know, people like those I’ll call Uncle Ned. My niche is doing what I love. web writing & editing. Publishing. I would love to create a lovely book for you and I know how to do it, have the software to do it, and can either teach you how to do these things or do them for you.

My niche is like that nut you crack open with one of those nutcracker soldiers at Christmas with Uncle Ned who gets hit in the skull by some of the flying debris when the Brazil nut slips. You see, I have trained myself to be a Ninjajill publishing phenomenon, and we sometimes use advertising to a similar effect. We get results because we got your attention. And really, Ned had that due karma.

So I opened a library and bookstore to call another niche.

Because loving one’s work produces the very best work. I can absolutely and unconditionally guarantee your satisfaction if you have me work for you.

I’ve worked at two newspapers, two print shops, and a publishing company to gain many years worth of real-world experience in presentation, design, marketing, camera work, estimating, proofing, printing, and the millennia of other aspects required to produce good print material.
