The Journey
Started in 2004…
The Writers For Hire was established in 2004 by Wintress Odom. After graduating cum laude from Rice University, Odom put up a website, figuring she could earn a little extra money doing something she loved (writing!).
Before long, she was so busy that she had to choose between turning down work or bringing on other writers. Never one for turning down work, her first hire made her what she likes to call an “accidental entrepreneur.”
Fast forward 20+ years…
The Writers For Hire has grown from a small, one-person, part-time endeavor, to a team of 25 highly qualified writers and editors who specialize in everything from technical manuscripts and corporate websites to ghostwriting and genealogical research.
Why Choose The Writers For Hire?
Sure, we’ve got the credentials. The great bios and impressive portfolios. But we also have the extra ingredients that simply make us…better.
We solve stuff.
We’re thinkers, fact-gatherers, archive archaeologists, and, most of all, problem-solvers.
Whether your task is thought leadership, marketing, or storytelling, our team will help you plan and create content that advances your goals. You can look to us also for support with knowledge transfer, personal family projects, change management, and stakeholder education.
Big doesn’t scare us.
In fact, we thrive in massive projects that require multiple writers. We understand how to optimize workflows, how to manage multiple moving parts, and how to set up the appropriate systems for any complex technical, ghostwriting, or copywriting job.
We’ve got your back.
We’re there for you when you need us. We’re quick to anticipate what you need, sometimes before you know you need it. When you’re crunched for time, we’ll fill in the gaps – we’ll keep projects moving forward, orient teams, gather data, and round up feedback, all with no handholding.
We’ve also got each other’s backs.
We’re a team. We leverage each other’s strengths to put together the best talent for your project. Our writers are also willing and able to step in and fill each others’ shoes when needed, adapting to a wide variety of industries, genres, and styles to make sure your project won’t miss a beat.
We get it done.
We can meet hard deadlines by using multiple writers to accomplish what a single writer could not.
Service matters here.
Just as important as our skills is our attitude. We love our clients. We love our work. We’re part of your team, and we embrace the give and take of collaborative feedback.
We’re also nice. And service-oriented. And honest. And fun. Seriously.
What other writing team gives you all that?
