Lisa J Jackson is a successful full-time freelance writer and editor. And by "successful," Lisa means that she's been a solopreneur since 2006 and has not had the 'luxury' of someone else paying her bills while she writes. She lives frugally and loves creating her own life day-to-day.

She worked full-time in the corporate world for over 20 years and went to night school full-time for her AS, BS, MBA, and an MA in writing for half that time. As a freelancer, she's had numerous pieces published in local newspapers and has had several articles published in a regional magazine that focuses on New Hampshire destinations.

Lisa is a co-founder and regular contributor to a blog for writers (http://nhwn.wordpress.com) and is a Great Leads editor for a NH-based writing organization (http://writersday.org) where she submits non-fiction-related job leads for members. Lisa's client list is growing and her paid writing gigs include ghost blogging for businesses, writing white papers, business success stories, warm e-mails, website content, and all types of marketing collateral.

You can find her on Twitter and LinkedIn as LisaJJackson, and Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/WriteYourWay).

As a fiction writer, Lisa has had several short stories published under her pseudonym Lisa Haselton, which may sound familiar -- she's on the staff of The Writer's Chatroom and moderates some 'celebrity' Sunday chats. She also has a blog for author interviews and book reviews, http://lisahaseltonsreviewsandinterviews.blogspot.com.

Non-writing interests include walking, finding the perfect cup of iced coffee, bicycling, taking adventure vacations, black and white photography and sketching.

Her 2013 goals include finishing a few 5Ks and her 3rd sprint triathlon, vacationing at a castle in Ireland, seeing several short stories published, expanding her non-fiction writing markets, finishing a novel or two, and learning to bake more than the perfect apple pie and a decent grilled cheese sandwich.
