Looking for a Freelance Copywriter (Toronto)
Small web development firm in Toronto is looking to hire a freelance copywriter for an upcoming project. This position does not require you to come into an office, but you may be required to attend meetings, so being local to Toronto or it's surrounding areas is a must.
We're looking for someone who has extensive experience in both writing copy for the web, and marketing-oriented creative writing. This is a larger corporate / social project that will require you to go through the motions of business exploration, working directly with the client to determine piece together the presentation, and working with the design staff in breaking the content down into organized and manageable chunks that will best sell the service.
We ask that when applying, you provide portfolio work - preferably live websites that reflect what we've briefly explored above. If you've never worked on a project like this, feel free to apply for future work anyway, but make sure you indicate this in your email or it will likely be discarded. For each portfolio piece, discuss your involvement in the project, link to specific segments of your writer, and provide a brief overview the project process. We're looking for a minimum of 3 pieces, with a minimum of one recognizable brand that you've worked with.
Be sure to include your rates and a detailed explanation of how they're applicable. Responding with an hourly rate, sans further explanation, is not useful and will therefore be discarded.
Thank you for your responses,

Freelance, Ninja Drupal Themer - New York, NY
We're looking for several ninja Drupal themers to parachute in and help us catch up on a deadline we're worried about. Here's the situation:
* Designs mockups are done.
* Drupal CMS is already functionally built out.
* Example site is themed.
What we need is a team to help us apply several different themes to different installs. All the design work is done, but we're looking for a pixel-perfect slicer and dicer to come in and make it happen. CSS/HTML execution of the PSDs; you know the drill. But it's not just applying the comps—there will be some node building, tweaking, and other Drupal goodness. So Drupal-specific theming experience is a must.
This is a short-term, last minute gig. Project would start on Tuesday, March 2. If you think you've got what it takes, drop us a line and let's talk.
