About the author

I’m a freelance writer near Indianapolis who likes to write compelling copy for clients. I held full-time positions in communications and public relations for more than 20 years. In August 2007, I launched Cindy Dashnaw Freelance Writing Inc. so that I could spend more time doing what I love: writing. The experience has been more rewarding than I ever dreamed.

My clients are museums, hospitals, community foundations and other nonprofits, for-profit companies, international organizations and more. I also have been published in local and national media.

I firmly believe no reader ever reads to be bored, and every organization’s communication pieces should support their goals. If you’re interested in my writing samples or talking about your project, please contact me at cindy.dashnaw@gmail.com.

  1. Cindy, what a fabulous Web site. I will be back! Found this while reading your response to the Hetrick blog.
    Hope all is well. Take care!


  2. Thanks, Vicki! Nice to hear from you. I’m doing OK and hope you are, too. Keep in touch!


  3. Hi Cindy – I’ve just stumbled across your website (via BadLanguage) and wanted to say how much I enjoyed reading it and absorbing your nuggets of wisdom.

    I’ve done some writing myself, but nothing much of late – seem to think about it more than getting it onto the page.

    Thanks for the inspiring thoughts.
    Best wishes
    Amanda


    • Thanks, Amanda! BadLanguage is a great blog. I do a lot of thinking about writing, too, rather than writing, sad to say. One of my favorite stories involves an author who was asked to speak to a college graduation class on his advice to writers. He said one word: “Write.”

      Best of luck to you!
