Taylor L. Roatch- Freelance Writer and Editor

04/14/2023

It's been a while since I introduced myself. Welcome to my office! I'm Taylor and I write for a living. It's really just the coolest thing ever. I've been writing full time many years now, which means I get to work from my bed on my own schedule, messy hair and all.

The majority of my clients are in the supply chain space, where I manage all kinds of copy and content. However, I love to step outside that box every now and then and take on a marketing challenge for a local business or edit fiction.

If you're a local business just trying to get out there, feel free to reach out to set up a consultation.

I get lots of questions about how I manage to make a living writing. Here's a piece I wrote with some advice for freelancers who desire to take a less-than-conventional approach.

According to pretty much every successful freelance writer out there doling out advice, I’m doing it all wrong. I work on bid sites frequently, I have no formal education or certifications, I refuse to pick a niche, I almost never pitch to clients, I very rarely send in submissions to publications...

This is a fun piece I did on selling apps. It's highly relevant right now between the KonMari craze and the fact that spring seems to have finally arrived.

There are dozens of selling apps out there, some good and some clunky, so how

Here's a piece I wrote for popular mom blog, WonderMommy. I had so much fun writing this personal piece! 😍

I strive for this kind of personal feel in my B2C work with companies when the goal is building brand trust and engaging a target audience.

Who is Wonder Mommy? It’s me. It’s you. It’s that woman at the deli who has a screaming toddler under one arm, is hoisting two gallons of milk onto the counter with the other, and is conducting an interview on her cellphone which is propped between her shoulder and her ear. Great Scot! This tr...

This is a piece I did for WiseWire, an edutech company that offers learning solutions for grades K-12. This piece was very dear to me, and I really wanted to get it right to showcase the absolute amazing-ness of my favorite public educators.

"Having an opinion does not release you from the rules of common human decency."

Occasionally, I lay down my tablet and write a personal piece. This week, my topic was the election. The above sentence has really stuck with me. I have been having a great deal of difficulty swallowing the hate and disdain I've seen from so many people (many who I know and love). It pains me to see people treating each other this way over a difference in opinion. Think before you post, folks.

I've been working with Dan over at Transport Jobs to add a blog to his site. I've so enjoyed researching and writing within an industry that has been such a big part of my life for the last 5 years.
