Welcome!

I’m Scott Emmons, a writer with over twenty years of experience in social expression, digital media, copywriting, editing, proofreading, SEO and more. My career path has been unconventional, challenging, full of twists and turns, often surprising, and always a blast! 

Writing To Connect People

I began my professional writing career in the humor studio at Hallmark, where I helped consumers connect by creating fun, positive, sharable greeting card messages. Hallmark taught me to write with a clear business objective, to channel my creativity into messages that consumers want to buy and send. I wrote many bestselling cards, some of which you may have sent or received yourself. 

Writing For Kids (and kids at heart!)

In 2010 I took a job with JibJab, writing for e-cards and tentpole features like the annual JibJab Year in Review. There I learned to adapt my writing to the kind of visual storytelling needed for short animations. As JibJab’s only full-time staff writer, I also created most of the SEO-optimized sell copy for our e-cards and other content.

JibJab was just then beginning its foray into children’s content with a line of personalized e-books, almost all of which I wrote. I had the exciting experience of helping to develop the StoryBots property, contributing many educational songs and other content to what soon became an Emmy-winning Netflix series, “Ask the StoryBots.”

And More!

I’m a published children’s author in my own right, with several books in print and more in development.

Over the course of my career I’ve learned to write in a wide variety of voices for different platforms and audiences. If you need something written or edited, it’s a good bet that I can help. So have a look around and hit that “Contact” link when you’re ready!
