| Being a full time freelance writer is not just about writing, or even about "just" writing well. Writing is a complicated process that involves more than choosing the right words in the right order; it involves knowledge of how grammar and style should be applied to a piece to produce the necessary impact, and an instinct for choosing the perfect phrasing. This skill and even the writing instinct can be taught, but for the busy professional it is much easier and more cost effective to hire a writer to do that work for you.
Writing full time takes the kind of person who can work under pressure and when the pressure lets up. It takes the kind of person with the courage to be their own boss, work long hours when they have to, and tune out the siren song of distractions like television, phone calls, or chores. I have been writing since 2005, and have been doing so full time since January, 2007. I know that deadlines, communication, and tight, quality writing are vital to your business. These things are as important to me as they are to you, and you can count on me for quality work. My personal commitment is to turning in well written copy on or before my given deadline, and working closely with clients to ensure that they have exactly the piece of writing that they want and need. I have written for national consumer magazines, trade magazines, and local publications. I have also done some ghostwriting, web content, SEO writing, and editing for various clients.

Some nice things others have had to say about me:
"I employed Dionne Obeso to do some editing work for me this last year. She completed it in a timely manner, and I remain impressed with her work ethic and professional nature. Dionne worked with me on a new book project that required a lot of patience on her part. She was very helpful when I needed to make changes and when I had questions about formatting. She worked diligently to complete the work I requested." -Darla Rowe
Dionne is an efficient and enthusiastic writer. As a freelance writer for The RINKSIDER, a bi-monthly trade publication for the roller skating industry, she has written feature articles, human-interest pieces and more. Her interviewing skills are thorough and her finished articles are interesting and informative. I highly recommend Dionne for any type of writing assignment. -Suzy Weinland, Editor The RINKSIDER
