Sharon Secor is a freelance writer experimenting with sustainable living, alternative energy, and self-sufficiency, dividing her time between the remote high plains of the Chihuahuan Desert and the Gulf Coast region. Her journey into freelance writing was inspired by Christine de Pisan (1364-1429), a widow and writer of social commentary who, in addition to being one of France’s earliest well-known female authors, was able to support her children through her writing. In addition to writing social, political, and economic commentary, Ms. Secor also specializes copy writing and SEO content, in addition to writing a broad range of articles for numerous websites and publications, including Direct Lending Solutions and Lenders Mark. Ms. Secor is gradually working towards completing a double major in Journalism and Spanish – preparation for writing for both English and Spanish language markets about social and economic issues in Latin America, as influenced by increased industrialization and the global marketplace. As a political anarchist and single parent, she also devotes her time to practicing resistance and raising revolutionaries.
