I like writing, editing, and the mysterious connections between ideas.

For the draft pages on "Recharge" and "Manny Bamfo" I am compensated by the following client:

I deleted several paragraphs discussing my paid work versus my volunteer work as they were cluttering this page. Please feel free to communicate with me if you have any questions or comments about my paid work, and my reasoning. The two times I have accepted compensation for my Wikipedia writing, one client decided, on my advice, that they required further notability, and have held off on submission. I do not advertise my Wikipedia work and have been put in touch with the few clients who have approached me through people who know me or word of mouth. I inform anyone interested that I will write objectively, that I do not guarantee publication and always go through the editor/submission process, and I have turned down more than ten clients who offered me compensation because they weren't notable enough, or because the topic did not interest me. I believe clients who do engage me to write their pages are behaving ethically, I am too, and my understanding is they could pursue other, easier options to gain a Wikipedia page than the open, transparent one I insist on following.
