For the past three years, I have worked in the capacity of doing press releases for various companies, including Stratics and EOGamer. In addition to this, I have had a hand in writing press releases for major corporations through my regular job.
This year, I have broadened my experience and am handling all press releases for the International Video Game Hall of Fame for their Big Bang 2010 event in Ottumwa, Iowa.
While the above mentioned projects have all been volunteer positions, they have broadened my knowledge of the PR world and have added valuable insight.
You can commission me to write and/or distribute press releases for you or your company. Press releases are charged based on word count, at the rate of 3.5 cents per word on the final version. To commission a press release, please e-mail grace.snoke@spiderwebzdesign.net.
