About Nicole

I split my time between two distinctively different kinds of writing.

During the day, I manage Keylocke Services, copywriting and marketing consultant firm based in Springboro, Ohio. With over 17 years of experience in professional writing and marketing, I help small businesses and creative artists present a professional image online and off.

I’ve been involved in varied and diverse industries—from bridal jewelry to anatomical models. Starting as a marketing assistant, I advanced to Director of Marketing before launching Keylocke Services.

Writing everything from ebooks to website copy, I capture my client’s voice in their marketing materials.

In the dark of night, I write fiction. A regular participant in NaNoWriMo, I have completed five novels and countless short stories. My writing can best be described as Midwestern Dysfunction.

I’ve been published in several magazines and on hundreds of websites. Short stories have won contest at Dayton Daily news, WOW! Women on Writing, and have appeared in anthologies.

I also speaking regularly on editing, marketing and the writing process.
