Virginia native,
Stephen Earley Jordan II, graduated from private Baptist-affiliated
Alderson-Broaddus College in 1999, where he earned a BA in Writing; and a BA in
Literature. Soon after graduation, he enrolled into graduate-level courses
studying writing and educational research.
After a year of graduate studies, Stephen moved to New York City with faith that
he would become established as a writer and editor.
Landing his first New York
City job as a financial editor on Wall Street, he established lists of freelance
clients offering short- and long-term writing/editing consultations to
education publishers and universities, travel magazines, encyclopedias,
websites, and various pharmaceutical advertising agencies.
"I see myself as an educator, even though I don't teach in a classroom," Stephen
says. "Editing and writing allows me to educate my readers of our own
deep-rooted hidden agendas, whether it's with my creative writing, nonfiction,
or poetry. I write about real life people and our uncomfortable circumstances.
People rarely want to talk about these issues. But we must recognize these
issues if we want to progress in life. This is why I write."
Stephen Earley Jordan II currently works as a copyeditor and resides in Bronx, New
York.
