Puzzle Consulting & Development

"Concept Arts was looking for help brainstorming and finding new and exciting puzzles to be used in an online viral ad campaign for the video game Bioshock 2. We found and enlisted the help of Julie Cohen in early 2009. She was a huge help to us working out puzzle ideas we already had as well as developing for us several new puzzles to work on. Julie was great to work with and brought exciting new ideas to the table over the months that we worked together. Several of her puzzle ideas can be seen at www.somethinginthesea.com. The site lived for almost a full year over which time there were daily updates that included her puzzles. Overall, it was a huge success for the Bioshock franchise."   Ian McDonnell Concept Arts Studios Inc. http://www.conceptarts.com/   Projects: Puzzle Consulting & Development for Online Viral Ad Campaign

Humor Writing

"I had the pleasure to bring Julie aboard The Bob & Angus Show project as a writer. Her sense of humor and insight into the characters was a real value-add to the team. She was also very dedicated and worked ahead of deadlines. I had no worry that we could get good content from her on time. I am actually looking for another project to put her on as she adds such value to the team. Julie has a great sense of humor, and beats deadlines with semi-truck tire irons. It is a real pleasure to work with someone that is on top of things and able to deliver that kind of quality ahead of schedule."   Don A.

"I had the pleasure of working with Julie to create a slogan for my company. It was a project that I had worked on for almost 9 months with no luck. I knew I would know the right slogan the second I heard it. Julie had endless patience and took the project on as if it was her own slogan. Since this project, I have offered her services to all of my clients, highly recommending her each and every time. Along with that, I plan to use her for all of my work in the future. I greatly enjoyed working with her and am looking forward to working with her again soon."   Melanie DePaoli Owner, Omicle.com   Project: created company slogan

"Julie Cohen helped construct a very professional proposal packet and I have only positive things to say about her and her abilities. I enjoyed her insight into the publishing industry that proved to be an essential part of the end-product. She had valuable and intelligent criticism on certain issues that helped sharpen the product much more and she works intensively and fast, but still maintains very high quality. I couldn't have found a better consultant than her and I will without doubt hire Julie Cohen for more projects in the near future. I highly recommend her and the services she provides!"   David Nicosia Longhi Copenhagen/DK - Europe Author theModelsDiet.com   Projects: advised on & edited book proposal copywriting copyediting

"Julie Cohen did a wonderful job of critiquing my website and gave me lots of helpful feedback and valuable suggestions! My site isn't a fancy one with lots of "bells and whistles" because my son helped me design it with just basic html, but Julie was able to work within our limitations and suggest ways to improve navigation, text layout, color appearance, usefulness of links, and general site appeal. She also helped me to consider ways to promote my books better. I really appreciated Julie's willingness to share her expertise with me and recommend her to anybody who wants assistance in improving their site." Evelyn B.

"Julie, I thank you for the great job you did on my website. My friends and others who visit the site are impressed. When I thought about having a website, I didn't know where and how to go about it. I contacted a few website designers, gave them the same information that I gave you, but they told me that it would be very costly. I'd about given up until you said you could help me. I was still skeptical, but you guided me through the whole process and for a reasonable fee, you did a magnificent job."   Emelda "Sandra" Edwards Author, Poet, Calypso Singer   Projects: designed and developed web site

"Without any prior experience making web sites, I made one geared towards helping writers. If it weren't for Julie K. Cohen, my web site wouldn't look nearly as professional and easy to read as it does now. She frequently sent me detailed e-mails describing what changes could be made to improve the site. She has an eye for detail and catches even small inaccuracies I would miss. Julie wanted my Web site to look as good as if it were her own, and it shows. I am pleased to have her on our staff for support. I know nothing will get by her."   Lisa Marie Miles Writing Forum Owner TheWritingBug.com   Project: full Site Review for the main site and forum. limited Web Development for the main site and forum minor assistance with Web Content Writing
