I have had experience in taking technical material and presenting it in layman's language. Industries and topics have included small and home-based business, biology, medicine, engineering, handicapped accessibility, education, family, personal finance, and spirituality.

I have developed a special reputation for being able to craft articulate and tactful copy for difficult, challenging, or delicate situations.


I believe that the purpose of a well-crafted resume is to secure an interview for my clients. Their resume should stand out from other resumes being examined by a prospective employer so that anyone reading it can easily and quickly identify the most important skills and talents of the individual and what they would offer if they were hired for that position.

I can usually begin work on your resume as soon as I receive your completed questionnaire and the required deposit, but please call to arrange a schedule of delivery.

Whether you've written a family history, a personal memoir, a novel, poetry, prayers, or just something to pass on to your children, I can help you find a way to package, present, and reproduce it. I can scan your photos for sizing and placing in your documents. Depending on your needs, I work with graphic artists, illustrators, indexers, printers, binderies, and self-publishing companies to find the right combination. Books for which I have provided page layout, editing, and/or consulting services include: Early Woodstock by Joseph B. Clower, Jr. and published by the Woodstock Museum; The History of Edinburg by Mary Ann Williamson; The Frenches of Woodstock, Virginia, edited by Anne French Dalke, Christopher Edward French and Carolyn French Long; Reminiscences of WWII by Irvin D. Magin; Shenandoah County Trivia by Irvin D. Magin; several books by James A. Strosnider: Autobiography, Reflections of Relatives, Alfred and Mary and The Bottom to the Top; and several novels by Paulette B. Maggiolo: The Guilty Teacher, The Terrorist Trap, and No Such Word. I am currently working with Jeanette Ritenour and James and Meg Trott on Welcome to Fort Valley.
EDITING AND PROOFREADING: What is it worth to have an embarrassing error                                                
caught before it goes out to the public? How often have you reviewed your own writing so much that you don't realize it's not clear to your readers? This is a very inexpensive investment in your image, and my satisfied clients will attest to its importance. You should have a third party edit and proofread:

• All important correspondence and reports
• Every bit of content posted to your website or blog
• Any writing that has the potential to reflect on your personal or corporate image

When our company launched its website with over 100 pages of content, our four senior partners had read, reviewed, and proofread everything carefully...we thought. Thank goodness we had RiverwoodWriter do a final perusal. Not only did Elizabeth pick up a few typos we had missed and correct one very embarrassing mistake, but she was also able to suggest several instances where more clarity was needed to ensure that our message was delivered with maximum impact. Now we send her every bit of fresh content before it's posted and get terrific ROI for the minimal expense.
