I'm a writer near Raleigh, North Carolina who's passionate about farms, food, and finance
When it comes to nonfiction, I wrote a book about how to work as a freelance journalist, Magazine Queries That Worked (June 2017), and the first guide to the Bonnaroo Music Festival (2010). My magazine writing has surfaced in GRIT, Produce Business, Vegetable Growers News, MarketWatch, and more.
As a resume writer, I help people clearly tell their professional story to support their career goals. I also advise on LinkedIn profile optimization by using my background in search engine optimization (SEO) and knowledge of LinkedIn's unique algorithms. My career services have expanded to interview coaching to help individuals manage their careers.
I write short fiction and poetry. I've received several writing awards, from a Southampton Writers Conference scholarship to the Carolina Woman Writing Contest. I founded Triangle Writers and Asheville Writers, creative writing groups that grew to more than 1,600 members collectively. I ran these groups from 2008-2022. Pre-pandemic, I led unique writing retreats and writing workshops, like Pen & Paddles where we floated on a river and wrote in kayaks.

-Beth Browne, Raleigh, NC Tara Lynne did a great job revising my resume. She interviewed me about my professional experiences and really listened to me.
