About
For many of us, writing can seem like the most arduous of tasks. For others, it’s a dirty job they’d rather leave to someone else. Is it any surprise? Starting at a young age, we learn to dread writing reports, speeches and essays.
Fortunately, as adults the rules we have to play by are a bit different. Effective delegation is the name of the game. (In school, it’s called cheating; in the real world, it’s “teamwork” — go figure!) It’s no different when it comes to hiring master communicators to help you articulate your ideas.

- Akweli Parker, a.k.a. … “The Word Ninja”
As The Word Ninja, I love doing two things in particular: writing killer content and helping other people make their writing stronger. And all of the best content — articles, speeches, videos, scripts and more — begins with superb writing.
If you’re an editor, communications director or someone else with lots of copy to produce and publish, I know what you go through. I spent much of my career meeting daily newspaper deadlines and working in a fast-paced communications shop. So I understand all too well how massive workloads can cause us communicators and our teams stress, high absenteeism, and even physical health problems. I make your life easier by helping you get your projects done right, on time and under budget.

In essence: Handing off a project to The Word Ninja means giving yourself peace of mind. I work hard to learn your organization’s style and tone so it’s as if you acquired another staff member — at a mere fraction of the cost!
