KATHRYN MATTHEWS’ ONLINE PORTFOLIO

Welcome to my online portfolio.  For over a decade, I’ve written extensively for a wide variety of publications.  Since it has taken time for some print media—like magazines—to evolve their digital presence, I can’t offer links to every story I’ve ever published (a long list!).   What you’ll find below,  however,  is a shortlist of  highlighted lifestyle features—on food, health, nutrition, travel, home design and country life.

I’m happy to share with you.

Should you wish to contact me about a short- or long-term writer-for-hire assignment, please email me at UpstateDowntown@gmail.com.
