Had a cool job with a client named Keenan Payne recently, who was born in a year that I was already in college, and has since developed his own front-end framework known as Concise.

Way back in 2010 when I first ventured out on my own as a freelancer, I figured I should try and learn tricks, being an old dog of 36 and all. One of those tricks was self-teaching PowerPoint, which has turned into a handy tool along the way. While I probably didn’t actually use PowerPoint…

Got a great new gig as copy editor for the long-time website EducationNews.com. Lots of great articles about the state of schools not only in the US, but also across the world with features coming from the UK, Australia & New Zealand, China, and mainland Europe.Having previously covered a big school district during my newspaper…

So the big draw of freelancing is more time with the family, particularly the titular Twin Miracles themselves. But when everyday life disrupts the work schedule, we find ourselves having to make up the hours somewhere else – that’s the downside of being a freelancer; most clients aren’t to thrilled to hear about what’s going…

One of our latest clients is the owner of a Canadian lawn care company who also happens to be a college student. Chris of Local Lawns requested our help with some copy editing / copy writing for his very nice pair of websites that advertise his impressive business in a suburb of Ontario. There’s nothing…
