Build a writing career that pays the bills, respects your time, and works from anywhere.

Working poolside in Playa Del Carmen, Mexico, in 2022.

Hi, I’m Miranda Miller—writer, editor, business owner, and your guide here in The Writers’ Den.

I’ve been writing professionally for over 20 years. Along the way, I’ve also hired, coached, and led teams of writers across industries, from newsrooms to big tech, government organizations, and marketing agencies. I know what editors want, what clients value, and what it takes to turn writing into a real, reliable income.

Today, I help midlife and mid-career professionals like you launch or grow freelance writing businesses that actually fit your life, not consume it.
