Welcome to Writing Happiness, I am chuffed, really. 
I am Marya. Think Maria with a Y. Don’t ask me – my Dad chose this spelling. Maybe he wanted it to be unique. In a way he was setting a precedent – for uniqueness. I am glad for that.
Let me ask you a few quick questions.
- Do you want to stand out from the crowd through your writing?
- Are you an online business / blog and rely on your writing to get results? Is your writing simple, clear and effective?
- How does your skill rank when it comes to writing online? Are you an expert in the genre of web writing?
- Have you discovered your writing (or blogging) voice?
- Are you being true to yourself (and to your audience) when you write?
- Have you got empathy for others and can your text live up to your claim?
- Need any help keeping you motivated or are you doing great on your own?
Want answers? You are in the right place. In fact we are perfect for each other …
I can help you create content.
Most people make the critical mistake of writing for THEMSELVES when they write online. They treat it as their online journal.
Forget writing to express yourself, learn to write for your reader. Write to help somebody – write to make a difference. This will decide how successful you become with your writing. And get your your writing noticed by being true to yourself and to your reader.
So who do you write for?
I write for all bloggers, writers and online entrepreneurs who want to get noticed through their writing.
You can read up my story here; how I came to start this blog. It’s pretty ordinary, no lay offs from any sort of job, no getting over life threatening illnesses, no life experiments, no selling everything and going around the world kinda story. Just an itch to carry on writing … to help people feel good about their writing.
An everyday story, written by an everyday writer.
Few Things about Me
- I am many things: copywriter, blogger, teacher, ex marketer, qualified lawyer, 24/7 mum and of course imperfectly human!
- I hail from a land down under – Australia.
- I have been a business writer for a number of years. I have also taught Business Communication, Business Writing and ESL to graduate students.
- This blog is my writer’s platform. Here I have permission to be – me. And at this place, I will find my tribe.
- This is a story of my passion – blogging, writing, helping, befriending. It’s very much human, and like all humans are; imperfect and growing.
- I blog to stop procrastination, to write inspite of fear; 15 odd years is more than enough – of writing, and calling it anything but.
And this is where I hang out.
Put your feet up, grab a cuppa and stay for a while. And welcome to my world!
I can help you write better!
Follow me @WritingH. I follow all bloggers, writers, teachers, creative humans … if you are alive, I will follow back.
