As a freelancer, I'm curious if you stick with B2B trade clients? And, yes, I recall Cathy Hodson from back in the late '90s when I started freelancing for PE. I primarily worked with then-editor John Krukowski, writing a regular column, newsletter copy, advertorials and the like.

At 10:16am on March 3rd, 2008, Rebecca Hennessy said…: Hi, Martha -- thanks for your reply. Let's see; where have I written. Beyond the newspapers and other consumer press, I went on to PR serving as the senior writer/project manager for a mid-size agency in Chicago. Did that for years. Too many clients and mediums to list. In B2B/trade, however, I've placed ghostwritten and bylined pieces in many of the industrial/manufacturing mags. For about seven years I wrote for Pollution Engineering as a contributor and regular columnist, and was editor of a national magazine on quality until I returned, once again, to independent work primarily for B2B/trade clients.

What about you? It looks like we do much the same thing, which is why your personal page caught my eye! :) As a new member, I plan to follow the groups that address our particular challenges in B2B/trade writing/editing. I'm especially drawn to discussions on the challenges of multimedia.

At 7:46pm on February 15th, 2008, Rebecca Hennessy said…: I am very interested in how B2B fits in at Wired Journalists as it evolves.

I come initially from newspaper reporting but wound up -- after a skip, hop and a substantial jump -- on the trade (B2B) side (as columnist, contributer, editor). It's rewarding work.

Like you, Martha, I work independently these days. I'm so happy to see that you're a member here. I'll look for you in the various groups. -- RH

At 8:37am on January 29th, 2008, Warren S. Hersch said…: Thanks for the invite, Martha. These social networking sites are really taking off. I'll be sure to invite my board.

Make sure you sign up for the World of B2B group!
