〰️
content writing
Content-wise, I have experience in writing and editing articles, technical reports, academic papers, blog posts, essays, social media posts, short stories, and poems. I love content creating, drafting, and planning and have experience doing that using various content management systems and digital platforms.
I love learning about different fields and collaborating with people in varying roles across a range of industries, so please don’t hesitate to reach out. In my writing, I have developed a strong understanding of audience, of what different audiences need. Between strategizing and writing coherent content and designing engaging, cohesive visuals, I am always looking for ways to improve reader experience.
MUSIC REVIEWS
As a music blogger, critic, and influencer with former experience at Independent Music Promotions, I am currently writing music reviews — promoting independent (local and international) artists and bands and increasing press coverage for their new music.
“Painting a smoky, jazz noir scene, Lucinda Belle takes your mind to a piano bar in Paris in 1920s with the alluring, smooth lilt of her voice in her newest single ‘Baby Don’t Cry.’ Beginning with a haunting vocal melody over the harp and piano backdrop, she makes you feel like you’re floating along the Seine...”

PUBLICATIONS
I am a published poet and essayist. My works have been featured in the following publications: Analecta Literary & Arts Journal (Issues 42 & 43), Echo Literary Magazine (2016, 2017), Thought Catalog, Unvael (Issue VI), and P.S. I Love You on Medium.
I write confessional, free verse poetry with a style that has been described as warm and heartfelt and tender, as well as heartbreaking in its honesty and vivid imagery. My prose, whether I am writing a short story or an essay, is marked by narrative poeticism and purpose — always amplifying truth.
I am a storyteller at heart. A cultivator and creator. I write to shed light upon untold stories across various media of writing.
