CV: Charlotte Ashwanden, nee Haworth - Freelance Writer (EU Citizen)
About me
I am a confident, friendly and sociable person with a dedicated attitude to my work. For me, writing is
about so much more than the transmission of information. With words we can empower and inspire, set
pulses racing or put smiles on faces and I have been developing my linguistic skills for over 10 years now.
An excellent and scrupulous researcher, I understand that writing on any topic involves being
open-minded at all times and utilises my receptive skills as well, for it is a two--way process and I am
always eager to engage with the different opinions which I encounter during my work. My competence
with the English language is shown by the fact that I am a CELTA-qualified English language teacher with
3 years' experience, and in my published work.

Writing Experience
Abundance Garden, Online - Blog writer (2014 – present): Writing blog posts on a variety of subjects
as part of the Abundance Garden project, which is encouraging celebration of abundance everywhere.
My posts range from positive news items to personal experiences, from recipes to poetry, and explore a
huge variety of topics. I am always open to looking at things from new perspectives and to adding more
to the blog. As part of the project I have also run workshops on a number of exploratory topics, most
recently for the May Project Gardens in London, UK.
