About Lyndsey D’Arcangelo

Hope is the thing with feathers, that perches in the soul, and sings the tune without the words, and never stops at all. ~ Emily Dickinson

Hello. If you’re reading this, then you probably want to know a little bit more “about” me. My name is Lyndsey D’Arcangelo. In a nutshell, I’m a freelance writer and an award-winning author from Buffalo, NY.  I love music, college basketball, baggy clothes, feel-good movies and the color blue. Basically, I’m just an ordinary individual who strongly believes that I can positively impact the world through writing.

Writing is something that I’ve always been good at. In fact, I fondly remember each and every writing camp I have ever attended growing up. Since graduating from Randolph-Macon College in 2000 with a BA in Creative Writing and English, I’ve been a high school sports reporter, columnist, journalist, blogger, author, copywriter and web writer. My experience in advertising, journalism, higher education and the creative writing world has provided me with the knowledge and versatility to write for a variety of mediums.

I could go on, but the best way for you to really get to know me is through my writing.
