FREELANCE WRITING SAMPLES

FREELANCE WRITING SAMPLES

Hi! Hello! My name is Linda Hosmer Spain and I’m a writer/producer. Since we have yet to meet face-to-face, here’s a quick snapshot of who I am alongside my written professional experience. I was born and raised in Los Angeles. I’m bilingual: Spanish. I studied Broadcast Journalism at the University of Missouri, Columbia and immediately put that degree to work as a TV reporter. There I learned to stitch together a trio of skills I’m proud to prop up: conversational writing style, zippy research skills and the ability to interview anybody (like my one-on-one interview with President Obama). Writing unlocked my ability to dip into many fields. I’ve worked for big name companies like TMZ and TBWA\Chiat\Day (Backslash). I’ve also had my words published by the L.A. Downtowner, Eater L.A., L.A. Taco, HANA visual content agency, gry space, Men’s Fashion Post (3M followers) , Caseology Cases and wrote/photographed an Instagram takeover for Travel + Leisure.

During my free time I love to explore my city and take followers on that ride, free of charge on Instagram: @blockanimal.

Thank you so much! Your consideration is so very much appreciated. Hope we connect soon!
