Do You Just Happen To Write Items That Matter?

Posted by Shakirah Dawud in Announcements, Marketing & Business, Social Media, Twitter

In my editing life I meet quality control reviewers, non-profit administration, analysts, business owners, PhD candidates… all writers, willy-nilly. They make life-and-death decisions about entire organizations, determine the significance of scientific findings, catch the eyes of customers, promise value for grant money, and more.

Posted by Shakirah Dawud in Announcements

You’re not lost; it’s the same place, alright! I’m proud to bring you the visual aspect of the Deliberate Ink brand I’ve been doing my best to convey in words all this time.

And the winners are…

Posted by Shakirah Dawud in Announcements

Remember my month-long site redo poll/contest? Of course you do! It ended in a tie yesterday, and the winning names came from the polls. They were… Deliberate Ink and Shakirah Dawud! I’m thrilled with both. The site redesign option with the most votes was: Artistic. Find something unique. And so I will. I’m happy with the way this contest turned out. It was a fun, unexpected, and new idea for me. But I couldn’t have done it without you. Thank you. I will...
