Hi, I'm Vanessa!

I’m a versatile writer with years of hands-on experience as a journalist, content creator and marketing strategist.

I believe in the power of story and I know how important it is to connect with an audience. I’ve worked with a variety of print and online publications for years.

Now, I’m using those skills to help businesses and organizations convey their messages in a clear and compelling way

Testimonials

A sharp eye and great suggestions

Vanessa did a quick turnaround when proofreading my book and caught many little mistakes my eyes were too tired to see. She also had a sharp eye and great suggestions for improving my business website. I look forward to working with her in the future and recommend other authors do the same

Thoughtful, meaningful feedback

When I needed an editor for my children’s book series, Vanessa was the first person who came to mind. She offers thoughtful, meaningful feedback to maintain and enhance an author’s voice, while also providing useful insight on how to make a book marketable. As I continue to create, I will always look to Vanessa for unbiased, quality advice on my writing.

Worth every cent

Vanessa helped refine my story, providing clear direction where it wandered too far off course and helping with pacing, character development, etc. She was concise in her feedback, which proved essential in a project of this size and was something I was concerned about before starting. Overall, the story was greatly improved with her help, as was my writing in general. The cost for investment was worth every cent. She was pleasant to work with, quick to respond when I reached out, and prompt in her delivery of services. I hope to work with her again and will be recommending her to others.

Detail-oriented, able to meet deadlines, professional

“Coming on as editor of Eugene Magazine, I was delighted that, as the former editor of the quarterly publication, Vanessa Salvia was interested in maintaining a freelance relationship with us. In my time with her, we have asked Vanessa to tackle a variety of topics, ranging from beekeeping to restaurant reviews. Vanessa is detail-oriented, able to meet deadlines, professional, and I know a story is in good hands when assigned to her.”

Willingness to tackle any subject

I really enjoy Vanessa’s stories. Just very interesting and informative with an engaging style, and ability to make contact with credible sources. I also appreciate her willingness to tackle any subject, as well as suggest her own story ideas. I appreciate our professional relationship and the stories we’ve told through words and pictures.

Knows what it takes to get project done on time

Vanessa Salvia has worked for HEROweb in a variety of capacities over the years. Vanessa excelled for us in both journalistic and technical writing. She has a very friendly writing style and was able to take technically complex topics and present them in a simple and straightforward fashion. She was also a key contributor in the web marketing division of our business, where she was able to acquire a range of skills related to search marketing and social media and very capably assist our customers with their marketing campaigns. I highly recommend Vanessa as a writer, editor, and social media communicator. She approaches her work with care and integrity and knows what it takes to get project done on time.
