London - A freelance writer and a software engineer have teamed up to create Writer's Residence, a website that allows writers to quickly and easily create an online writing portfolio. Built in response to the needs of writers, particularly new writers who want to market their work online, Writer's Residence lets writers create a professional website, upload writing samples, and create a résumé/CV, all without any software downloads or HTML. The result is a website and online portfolio that enables writers to: * Impress editors with a clean, professional portfolio * Easily share writing samples with editors, clients and friends * Host writing samples in one convenient place * Show off writing credits, awards and achievements * Use the internet as a marketing tool and find gigs that pay! Everything writers need to create a website as quickly as possible Carole Woddis, a freelance writer and instructor at City University, London, said Writer's Residence is what new freelancers have been searching for, "and now here it is, all tied up in one stress-free neat package." This package includes: * An easy-to-manage website with a clean, professional design * Web pages for writing samples, contact details, biography, and résumé/CV * Custom themes * Hosting for an unlimited number of writing samples * A unique web address or the ability to bring your own domain name * Prompt and personal phone and email support Created by a desire to help writers establish themselves as professionals Monica Shaw, a freelancer writer, created Writer's Residence with Timothy Harding after her own struggle to create a an online writing portfolio: "I couldn't find an easy solution online so I created my own portfolio from scratch. This took a lot of time and energy which probably would have been better spent writing and pitching!" Monica knew other writers who struggled with the same problem, so she and Tim, a computer programmer by trade, created Writer's Residence to help other writers create a stylish website with little fuss.
