Hello Everyone:

Thank you for visiting my website.

After growing up in Massachusetts, in 1983 I earned a bachelor of arts degree from Beloit College in Beloit, Wisconsin. I majored in economics and management, but I also took numerous science and mathematics courses, including calculus, organic chemistry, physics, biology and photography. Upon returning to the Bay State I started writing for small newspapers. I also ran a small firm for nine years. Then in 1993 I earned a master of science degree in print journalism from Boston University, among the top American journalism programs. As a longtime news reporter and editor, I have written thousands of published articles and blogs. I have reasearched and written for large-circulation newspapers, magazines, newsletters, blogs and websites, including the Boston Globe, Reason Magazine, Insight on the News Magazine, the New York Times, Evote.com and the Associated Press.

For the last eight years I have been offering a manifold of writing and editing services online.

Today I work as a wordsmith while overlooking the Merrimack River in downtown Lowell, Massachusetts. And when not working, I am often reading non-fiction and playing ice hockey.

Writing and editing are my passions. I hope to help you in whatever you need done.

My goal is to make you happy.

John Pike
