Who "We" Are

I won't kid you; Ink Free Media (IFM) is mostly me (Claudine). However, I have many talented writers that I contract with to provide copy for our clients. I know that you can't be everything to everyone; well you can try but you won't be very successful at it.

Some writers are great at Marcom; some aren't. We make sure that you have the right writer or designer for the job.

Tracy Morris: Health & Consumer Writer

After 15 years in the field of family social work, Tracy made a name for herself in what seemed an unlikely arena -- infertility. As the original About.com guide to infertility, she built from scratch an educational support mecca for people from around the world, eventually garnering millons of 'hits' and becoming a virtual template for infertility sites that followed. Her work was named as a resource and featured in a number of publications, including Pregnancy Magazine, Offspring Magazine, The Dallas Morning News, Southwest News, and PC Magazine's Computing Made Easy.

Four years after authoring, marketing, and managing that site successfully, she expanded her freelance writing options and moved on to her own favorite labor of love -- How to Make a Family (http://howtomakeafamily.com). She's worked as an associate editor for ePregnancy Magazine, editor for IntegraMed America's Conceptions newsletter, and been published in several print and Internet magazines. Tracy combines a professional background and consumer-oriented approach to her health and human development writings, whether for marketing or educational purposes.
