During the blazing heat of August, it is easy to forget that fall is just around the corner. This is a good time to start planning some fall cleaning for your website and to refresh things and get some solid systems in place before heading into the longer winter months. By getting your website in order, you free up your time to write plenty of great content during the months when you’ll naturally be indoors and behind your computer more often.

My name is Dan, and I love helping people with words and strategy (especially online).

I’m a digital native who can spot misspellings from a distance and help you storytell your online product, business and ideas better. Simply put, I’m a wordsmith with a touch of geekism (version for beautiful girls and Fortune 500 CEOs: freelance content strategist, yay).

I lived and breathed the Internet since I was 9 and I couldn’t love it more. And hey, it has given me the freedom to live in Sicily, where the sun shines 24/7 and the food tastes better than 98,5% of the world!
