Writing and Editing
Writing
As a freelance writer, co-author, or ghostwriter, Hawley Roddick brings you the experience of an author of novels, nonfiction books, and articles on a wide range of topics that appear both in print and online. And as an experienced personal historian, she writes clients' custom memoirs based on in-person or telephone interviews ($1 per word).
In addition, she has given her seminars and private coaching sessions for many successful businesses and nonprofits and so can provide you with superior business writing, including press releases ($.70 per word and blogs (per-project pricing).
"I don’t think we could have been as successful as we were at Cosmo without Ellen [Hawley] Roddick's serious contribution." — Helen Gurley Brown, Editor-in-Chief, Cosmopolitan International Editions
"Hawley has elevated the writing savvy of more than 600 professional marketing communicators. That’s an accomplishment as well as a contribution to the professional development of colleagues in our industry." — Della van Heyst, Director, Stanford Publishing Ventures Group, Palo Alto, CA
Editing
All writers can profit from a "fresh eye" on their work. A skilled freelance manuscript doctor of nonfiction (including memoirs), Hawley will read your manuscript and summarize in writing or on the phone ways to improve it ($1 per double-spaced page). She also offers final-touch editing ($5 per double-spaced page) as well as detailed professional polishing and development ($8 per double-spaced page)."I admire not only Hawley's engaging writing style but also, and perhaps even more, her ability to help others shape their material into book form." — Michael Snell, Michael Snell Literary Agency
"Hawley's step-by-step approach to developing different types of biography was very helpful and a real stimulus." — Nancy Gilien, Napa Valley Genealogical & Biographical Society
