MARSMEN Ltd.
Content Editing/Writing Consulting
My name is Matthew John Meagher and I am 34 years old. I have an MFA in Creative Writing from Regis University and a B.A. in Elementary Education from the University of Northern Colorado. My novel Irish Town is available on all formats.
Thank you for inquiring about my services. Writing is quite a daunting task, no matter the genre, and the best way to improve is with support. One day, you will have to workshop this piece with other authors or writers and I want you to be prepared. This will be a partnership. We’ll be a team.
​
I provide two essential services that often go overlooked in the writing industry. I have knowledge of storytelling, specifically archetypal character development. I can also provide support in professional development in your continued career as a writer.
​
I work by contract, so you will be getting more hands-on experience. I have included a checklist of my skills for you to peruse and explore.

What’s next…
I would prefer if you take a look at my list or have specific areas that you feel need work. So a small introduction letter with a brief synopsis would be great. I will need 5 business days. You will receive a content edit of your writing and resource development suggestions along with a personalized critique letter. Welcome to MARSMEN Ltd.
Thanks again. Hope to hear from you!
