My name is Lisa Bakewell and I am a full-time freelance writer in the Chicagoland area. I have been writing full time for about a year, but part-time for three years prior. Most of my work up until now has been for The Engravers Journal, an awards and recognition trade magazine (think trophies and awards), but I'm starting to branch out from there and I feel things starting to snowball- in a good way! You can visit my website at www.writerlisabakewell.com to view a sample of my clips.

My hobbies include: working out at the gym (at the ungodly hour of 5:30 am), reading (duh, right?) and hanging out with my husband, kids and my friends.
