Rosemary is a delight to work with and her work is rewarding to edit. She sets the stage well, does her research, and brings a needed perspective to the table. Her story for Medicinal Media on sensory processing issues and apps has inspired our readers and we're so grateful for her words and voice.

Before Rosemary worked with us, our hesitation was that not have an in-depth knowledge of the specifics of the sector, but she provided us with a valuable personal perspective on the subject matter. She is definitely a good writer to work with - very flexible to your needs, and responsive and understanding when it comes to feedback. She had very prompt responses, and was an excellent collaborator that was quick to get to work on feedback.

My team had a positive experience working with Rosemary. Her article pitch was interesting, clear, and to the point, and showed a knowledge of our publication. She filed on time and was responsive to edits. Finally, when the article was published she was happy to help promote it on social media. I would absolutely recommend working with her.

I have done writing projects for diverse platforms...

Click on the category that applies the most to you to check out relevant writing samples:
  1. Digital magazine contributor work​
  2. Writing for company blogs
 

Digital magazine contributor work

 I know exactly how to come with articles that get people talking and sharing what they read with their friends.  Many of my articles have been cited, repurposed, and discussed on sites that broaden the reach of my articles to a larger audience such as Yahoo News, ISSUU, Book Riot, and Disability Wire. 

Five writing samples:

 

Toronto star

This article was published on August 3,2024 in Toronto Star, one of most circulated newspapers in Canada.
 

Writing for company blogs 

Along with my work for print and web publications, I have also written for corporate audiences via direct collaboration with their marketing team, content manager, and web development team. Here are two samples of work I have done for that particular demographic.

​My lived experience angle helps support corporate audiences' diversity and inclusion message while demonstrating to their customers that their products and services are deeply attuned to issues affecting the disability community.

Uptimize resource page (content writing)

Uptimize specialises in neurodiversity training that attracts, retains, and hires people of all thinking styles.

I was initially hired to write resource material with an authentically neurodiverse perspective. Here is the former marketing manager of Uptimize's impressions of my work:

Rosemary cares about her work, and it is obvious she spends time researching.When we first started working together Uptimize was trying to elevate neurodivergent voices. We were also hoping to find someone interested in writing about neurodivergent topics. With Rosemary's blog posts, we have successfully driven traffic to our website. If you want well researched HR and neurodiversity topics, I would personally recommend Rosemary's writing services.
