Who?
Who is Washwords?
If you’re on this page because I begged, cajoled, manic-messaged you, then you already know who I am - be nice!
But if you’ve stumbled upon me, I’ve chosen to remain quasi-anonymous for a few reasons. I can share more detail with anyone who cares but in sum, I think I wanted to be read objectively and write the same way, NOT for a particular group, but for whoever it appeals to (and I hope that will be you, whether you know me or not).
By way of introduction, I am a lifelong writer/editor living in Washington, D.C. I work for the government, editing reports and helping social scientists translate their research into “plain English” but have freelanced, been a staff writer for publications including: Newsweek, The Washington Post, Syracuse Herald Journal, Syracuse New Times, Montgomery Gazette (Maryland), Binghamton Press & Sun Bulletin, and a lot of other places, most of you’ve never heard of, where I learned a lot and met some AMAZING people. I’m also 35-ish, female, been married and divorced (stayed friends as much as that’s possible), am (finally) dating a really great guy (and have some great dating battle stories to prove it), own a place in the city but have lived in surburbia. I don’t have children but consider myself truly blessed to have a niece I love to pieces and a lot of great kid friends. Likewise I don’t have pets, but have two very special dog friends.
Thank you for reading, writing, stay tuned. I’ll update this as I figure out more and more about what I’d like it to be. You can help - write me!
