I am a freelance writer and enjoy writing about a variety of topics. I am an independent contractor and write for a number of clients many of whom I have been matched up with on oDesk a freelancing marketplace.

What started out as a hobby has led me to focus almost entirely on business related writing which I enjoy. I have also written numerous legal articles both for Marketplace and for clients. My ability to research topics has resulted in legal articles that are easily understood by those without a law degree. I have also written a number of medical articles.

I have clients who highlight my work as part of their efforts to promote specific topics (such as saving money). As a professional freelance writer it is always my objective to continue learning about new topics and to constantly improve my writing skills.

I am always interested in learning about new things which has resulted in ghost writing three eBooks on different topics as part of my freelancing. It's been an exciting journey for me!

I am an active volunteer, I maintain several websites for charity (donated time) and I am actively involved in 3 Board positions for not for profit organizations. I'm the mom of 3 grown children and grandma to 7 beautiful grandchildren.

There are some factors that can help you make sound fundamental decisions.

1. Earnings: Company earnings are the bottom line. Earnings are the profits after taxes & expenses. The stock & bond markets are driven by two powerful forces - earnings and interest rates. The flow of money into these markets is competitive. Investors move into bonds when interest rates go up and into stocks when earnings go up. It is a company's earnings, more than anything else, that creates their value. (There are certain caveats to this idea that must be considered).
