Freelance writer for B2B SaaS and ecommerce brands | Avid reader | To-do list obsessed
The first time my writing ever got recognized was in third grade when I won a writing competition. From there on, my path was crystal clear. It was either writing that would be my future or making it to Mars.
Literally.
I didn’t make it to Mars though.
Flash forward to my adult version and I’m a freelance writer who doesn’t like dog-eared books and prefers working in silence, adding life to boring topics. I work with folks interested in tapping into quality content to educate and engage with their audience.
I pair storytelling and research with a pinch of emotion to write engaging long-form blog posts and articles covering productivity, digital marketing, and other important matters like customer experience and UX design.
As a content writer, my focus doesn’t sway from:
• Subtle keyword insertion in the content
• Extensive research backing all claims made
• Crisp writing minus the fluff and plagiarism
To me, there is nothing as good as beautiful writing which is why my love for reading storybooks in a corner while the other kids played has evolved into a love for novels.
Oh and before I drop the mic, I’ve one last thing to add: Hello and welcome to my world of words. How can I help you? Shoot me an email at masooma@inkandcopy.com
