The staff of Girl Next Door Communications has, for the past decade, been providing marketing and editorial services to a variety of companies such as HarperCollins Publishers, EthnicGrocer.com, Simon & Schuster, Foodline.com, and Bantam Doubleday Dell.

For EthnicGrocer.com, we've spearheaded major marketing initiatives, like starting and maintaining the EthnicGrocer Cooking School.

For book publishers, we've written gobs of cover and catalog copy for books we targeted, acquired, and polished for various markets; to that end, we've worked with hundreds of seasoned and new authors on their writing.

We've talked to writers across the country, serving as faculty for a number of SCBWI (Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators) conferences, and teaching classes on the publishing business for The Learning Annex in New York City.

We've penned more articles than we can count for media outlets such as USA Weekend (in print and online), Mediabistro.com, and Daily Candy, on topics ranging from Tapas to teen trends. Here are links to a few samples:

USA Weekend: Give Sushi a Second Look

USA Weekend: "For Better or Worse" is For Kitchens, Too
