I am a lover of words--of the English language--and I am interested in any avenue or opportunity that allows me to use my skills and express my imagination. In addition, I am an online instructor of Political Science, though my first love, and first degree, was in English. I am comfortable with the online world and I look forward to freelance writing opportunities.
