Content: Scientific/technical writer for hire, skilled, reliable

Ollie Hicks · 10-06-2009, 11:46 AM

Hallo, I’m new on the forum. I would like to offer my services as a freelance writer to you good people.

My site is www.OllieHicksWriter.wordpress.com. I have a BSc (Hons.) in biological sciences and a City & Guilds Level 2 Diploma for IT Practitioners (ICT Systems Support). My areas of interest are scientific (including health-related) and technical writing (as you might expect). I am competent to interpret peer-reviewed articles (including statistical information) and communicate their substance in clear and intelligible English.

I'm a communicator, a science enthusiast (if not geek) and a populariser. My special talent is the production of highly concise, information packed pieces that a bright eleven year old could understand (without dumbing down). I am a Brighthub writer on three channels (GPS, Genetics and Computer Hardware).

My rates are available on my blog, but as an opening offer to WF regulars I would like to offer five free 4/500 word articles (that’s one article per person) in exchange for a testimonial. Half the article provided up front, the other half held hostage until in receipt of testimonial!

i would take you up on a sample too but i'm not sure how i could write you an endorsement based on 1/2 an article?

Article received many thanks. It was well articulated and extremely well researched. Keyword density was spot on. Best of all it was interesting.

many thanks and look forward to working with you in the future.

Just kidding there Jay: I wouldn't really be sending ransom notes and severed body parts. Honest!

I can provide you a one-article sample if you'd like to be the second person taking advantage of this offer. Just let me know.

It's for a small software company's medical software development service section; If you stick to your rate posted, I won't mind paying from the first article itself; 6 pages planned and you could add the 7th page on sample quota. A general landing page + those listed in my earlier msg. I may also need similar # of pages for mobile software development. Could you link some past work for softwares and/or medical apps.

(It's kind of technical writing, not looking for 'we can do this and that' type of service pages)

Hi Ollie,

I tried sending you a PM, but apparently your PM folder is full. So, I submitted my request through your website's contact form.

Thanks

George
