Yuwanda Black

Hello and welcome. My name is Yuwanda Black and I’m a freelance writer, author and web entrepreneur. My primary niche is SEO writing. In addition to SEO writing, I also provide a range of other writing services — from press releases to sales letters to newsletter copy.

My Businesses

New Media Words is my SEO Writing and Distribution Firm. I also publish and write practically all of the material for InkwellEditorial.com, the #1 site on the web for information on how to start, grow or maintain a freelance writing business.

I blogged about freelance writing at InkwellEditorial.blogspot.com for 4+ years, before folding it into InkwellEditorial.com. FYI, the blog (and the aforementioned site) mostly dispense first-hand information about how to start a successful freelance writing career.

I also blog regularly at several other minisites I own, ie, ForeclosureBusinessNews.com and SeoWritingJobs.com.

Published Author

I have published 15 e-books and pamphlets on freelance writing and small business. I also wrote and published two online freelance writing e-courses and have authored hundreds of articles on the business of freelance writing.

My Professional Background/Credentials

I have been in publishing since 1987. I owned/operated Inkwell Editorial, an editorial staffing and recruiting agency in New York City from 1996-2004. I repositioned the business as an online information portal for editorial and creative professionals (primarily freelance writers) in December 2004.

In 2000, I developed and co-taught a Chicago-style copyediting course, which was attended by individuals and Fortune 500 executives alike. I also created and taught a web development and marketing course at Borough of Manhattan Community College in New York City (2001).

A long-time, serial entrepreneur, I have been featured in numerous magazines, newspapers and online outlets, among them: Entrepreneur.com’s small business magazine Be Your Own Boss; The Wall Street Journal’s RealEstateJournal.com; the noted online business journal GreaterDiversity.com; and the highly popular work-from-home site PowerHomeBiz.com.

Education/Other

I have an AA in English, a BA in Sociology and completed one year of course study towards an MA in Criminal Justice at John Jay College of Criminal Justice in New York City. I have been a freelance writer since 1993; a self-syndicated small business columnist; and a small business/entrepreneurial advisor.
