Karen Barbuscia, Freelance Writer and Editor

I am a long-time writer of fiction, exposition, articles, poetry, and song, and a dedicated editor with a critical eye. Interviews, research, and a broad perspective feed my non-fiction work, along with a background in marketing and branding that I bring to a piece when called for. Whether composing or editing, from books to magazines to web content, my first goal is to reflect the heart of the subject and draw in readers with a unique voice and connection that holds their interest. I believe in the power of tone and voice, and original ideas and content. Communication, respect, appreciation, humor, human and animal rights, and honesty are at the core of my belief system.

When not at my desk I am busy running, cooking, practicing yoga, drinking wine, and enjoying food, nature, true friendships, bright colors, subtlety, dark edgy humor, literature, and my family. I'm a music lover, diehard flower photographer, film junkie, book nerd, grammar enthusiast, and secret introvert, with lifelong roots in suburban Philadelphia.
