I’ve got a word for you.

Actually, I might have a few.

I’m Meredith Sell, a freelance writer and editor with a dual background in journalism and marketing. Words are kind of my thing.

If you’re looking for someone to guide editorial projects from beginning to end — or if you simply need to offload some writing or editing work — I can help.

About Me

I’m a thinker, crafter, athlete, big sister, aunt, storyteller, and women’s history nerd. I’ve been telling stories for as long as I can remember, making magazines since middle school, and going down internet rabbit holes since my hometown library first offered computer access to kid patrons.

I’ve been freelancing from Denver, Colorado, since 2017, helping organizations tell stories through case studies, reports, blogs, and magazine articles. I write reported stories for publications like 5280 (the Denver magazine), run a Substack newsletter called Women’s Barbell Club, and spend my free time knitting, embroidering, hiking, and (supposedly) reading.

My professional values: Collaboration, creativity, curiosity, clarity.

I’ve written entire websites from scratch, explainer articles about local infrastructure, and narrative stories that bring nonprofits’ missions to life for the reader. I match company voice and tone easily, and can smoothly switch from writing a longform narrative project to short, snappy marketing copy.

I bring creativity and strategic thinking to every project that I work on, and everything I write aims to provide value to readers.

I’m known for beating deadlines, delivering clean, original content, and being responsive to feedback. I take a customer service approach to my work, helping my clients think through exactly what they’re after and how my words can help them get there.

Need help?

My client list is open right now. If you need help with words — message me.

I’m especially interested in newsletter writing, editing gigs, or narrative storytelling projects.
