Marcie Hill, founder of The Write Design Company, is a published journalist and business writer with a great interest in blogging and social media marketing.

She earned her Bachelor of Science degree from Northern Illinois University and her Masters degree from National Louis University.  She worked as a Human Resources professional for 12 years in the healthcare, nonprofit, manufacturing and technology industries.

Her writing life began in 2002 with her monthly inspirational newsletter, Shorty In Da House.  Started as a means to share great news about an event in her life, the newsletter grew to inform over 500 national readers about activities and resources for young people and seniors; things going on in the community; and employment opportunities.  She wrote, edited, and published it for eight years.

As her passion for writing grew, she divorced her human resources career to become a freelance journalist.  Ms. Hill’s published works can be found in N’Digo MagaPaper, Mahogany Magazine, The Independent Bulletin community newspaper, and Chi-Town Daily News online newspaper.  A more comprehensive list of projects can be found on her blog, Marcie Writes, at http://marciewrites.wordpress.com/category/published-works.

As a business writer, she has written marketing, public relations, and employee communications for Imagine Englewood, If…, ShopLocal, Awakened Alternatives, MJM Speakers’ Circle Toastmaster Club, LuvKare Enterprises, and various real estate and religious organizations.

In addition to Marcie Writes, she manages two additional blogs: As NOT Seen on TV (http://asnotseenontv.info) and Go Shorty: Your Chicago South Side Resource (http://goshorty.net.  As NOT Seen on TV discusses mainstream media practices – good and bad.  In addition, Shorty provides resources and information about culture, education, employment, health and youth programs and activities on the South Side of Chicago
