A freelance writer dedicated to your success

I’m a freelance writer with happy clients and bylines in magazines across the U.S. My specialty is higher education, but as a journalist, I’m flexible and enjoy learning new things.

Thankfully, my curiosity hasn’t killed me yet.

How can I help you?

As a professional wordsmith for more than two decades and a lover of language from the time I learned to read, I’ve been playing with words for quite some time. These days, I organize them into compelling stories to help people just like you solve their writing problems.

That’s my philosophy: Stories – well-crafted, engaging, passionate ones – help people relate to one another. Understand one another. Trust one another.

To get there, you tell your stories. You establish authority. You write, you create, you explain, you show. Over and over and over.

If you’ve run out of words, or just can’t find enough time to put pen to paper, contact me.

Why is that a good idea?

I’m a journalist, a marketing communicator, a blogger and – above all – a storyteller. I’ve been an editor for several newspapers; I’ve managed a couple of magazines; and I’ve written all things multimedia for a marketing department. I’ve drafted e-newsletters, email blasts, blog posts and website copy. I’ve penned direct mail packages, press releases, brochures and holiday cards.

Since I established my freelance writing business in 2010, I’ve written and edited for a variety of clients with different needs. I’ve delivered stories in a matter of days to rescue editors on deadline. I’ve interviewed authors, astrophysicists and CEOs of multimillion-dollar companies. Oh, and one billionaire. And an actual, real-life rocket scientist. I love a challenge.

Always put your best words on display. You never know who’ll be reading. Email me at ashley@ashleyfesta.com to schedule your free phone consultation.

Ask me about my freelance writing services

I once sat down for lunch with a client after I’d completed several large projects. We talked about the articles I’d edited on deadline and about the next project coming up. Over sushi and soy sauce, my client looked me square in the eye and said, “There are no mistakes.” Best compliment ever.

On several occasions I’ve been told, “Thanks for making me sound smart.” I can do the same for you.
