Marijke Durning, RN - Writer & Editor

With the continuing growth of the Internet and the increasing quest for knowledge, good quality medical and health writing, editing, and proofreading has never been more important. 

Whether you are targeting a professional audience or the general public, you’ve come to the right place. 

If you’re looking for general writing, editing, and proofreading, I can do that too.

Good writing never goes out of style.

 A Bit About My Name

If you aren't sure about how to say my name, don't worry - you're not the first to wonder. I was born in Canada of Dutch parents. "Marijke" is a Dutch name. Phonetically, my name is said muh-rye´-kah/keh. If you can roll the "r", all the better. 

Why Hire Me

With my experience as a registered nurse, I bring to my writing a unique understanding of both professional and general public audiences.

My Other Website and Blogs

My blogs, Help My Hurt, Womb Within and Cancer Commentary have been retired. As part of the b5media network, they were merged into a more general health category, where I'm still blogging. The section, called Diseases and Conditions, is about anything health-related. You can find my posts now at BlissTree.com.

I have begun a new project called Seniors Support. This website will be the go-to site for anything senior-related. From the retired person looking for information on moving to a new area to a caregiver, this site will provide links and articles to answer the many questions that people may have.  

Marijke: nurse turned writer, is a personal blog about health issues in the news, with a bit of freelance writing information thrown in. Finally, I have a non-health-related project that I'm really pleased to be working on. It's a lot of fun and I invite you to have a look. It's called Montreal On The Cheap.com.The site is for deals, fun and freebies around Montreal. Please come by and see what we have.
