Wow, have I seriously not updated my writing portfolio since last year? My bad!
My only excuse: I’ve been busy.
Busy running a writer mentoring group. Busy publishing a book. Busy taking part in podcasts and conferences.
But, of course, I’ve been writing, too. And I’ve done some work I’m pretty proud of.
For example, on the OptinMonster blog, I wrote long guides to growth hacking and content marketing. And my SEO guide was one of the biggest, most in-depth I’d written in a while, weighing in at around 8,000 words.
In terms of ghostwriting, I’ve done ebooks on content marketing, and lead magnets about lead generation.
Here’s a roundup of all the bylined work I’ve done this year. (NB: Some OptinMonster articles may have been updated by different writers since I wrote them).
