Hi!
With the shutdown persisting, I have found myself with free time and the need for work this month. While I wait for the LoC project I was contracted for to commence, I am available to transcribe ($1/audio minute, $1.50/audio minute for a 24-hour or less turnaround).

I also have time to take on more fact-checking work. I have checked and researched magazine features, podcasts, books, articles, etc., and am always eager for more.
I am reachable here and at katherinebarnerwriting@gmail.com.
Feel free to share. Thank you!

A brief update: After taking a hiatus to focus on my health, I am now back and available for freelance work. I just started working as a contract transcriptionist on a very cool project with the Library of Congress.

Nothing is okay right now and I hate that Iβm stuck in the position of mild-moderate desperation. But alas, the medical bills are growing, LA is a mess, the freelance market is scary, and I need to pull myself up.

Quick update: the fire near us has been contained 100%, so we're cautiously optimistic, at least in my neighborhood. I'm packing a bag for myself and the cats in case something flares up in the Hills and we're ordered to evacuate again.

It's my birthday! And all I want is more work. A project I'm working on is wrapping soon and the current climate is terrifying for freelancers. While searching for a staff position, I'll be here for all transcribing and fact-checking needs. I'm reachable here and at katherinebarnerwriting@gmail.com.

Thanksgiving plans were canceled (boyfriend has shingles, we're keeping fingers crossed I don't get it, too). Would love something to keep me busy this weekend!

Hi hello hi! I am currently looking for work. Yes! Magazine decided to pause its print issue for 2025, so my time at Yes! as a fact-checker has ended for now. This was my last remaining steady gig and I'm still recovering from getting laid off last year from Spotify.
