Hello! It’s nice to meet you.

I’m Allissa

Founder of The Feathered Pen

I have been writing professionally for over 25 years and am passionate about helping you share your story.

Formally, I have a degree in legal research and a certificate in applied business management. I’ve worked with municipalities, corporations, and not-for-profits to help them create clear and concise messaging for internal and external stakeholders.

When I discovered the innate gift I have to help executives, entrepreneurs, and spiritual leaders dig deeper to express their ideas and build their legacy, I left the corporate world and decided to follow my writing passions. Today, as Owner and Chief Creative Officer of The Feathered Pen, I spend my days helping thought leaders share their messages with the world by providing ghostwriting and editing services.

Everything you need for writing

We understand that being a thought-leader comes with many challenges, including finding the time to share your message with the world and getting your thoughts out of your head and into written form so you can create an impact.

Our professional team of heart-centered writing experts will help you with all of your writing and editing needs so creating a written legacy feels light as a feather.

How We Can Work Together

Ghostwriting

When you have an amazing story to be told, a plethora of wisdom, or some lessons that must be shared with the world, but you do not have time or you can’t seem to get the words out of your head onto paper, we’ve got you covered.

Editing

As an author, maintaining your voice and ensuring that your message comes across exactly how you intended can be daunting. Whether you merely need a second set of eyes on your manuscript to ensure you are on the right path in your editing journey, or you need someone you can trust to keep the integrity of your work intact while assisting you in kicking it up a notch, you’ve come to the right place.

Copy writing

Whether they are just discovering your services, considering working with you, or are already valued clients, the way you communicate with people is of vital importance. We’ll go over your strategy and your goals and then create content that hits the mark.

As an author, maintaining your voice and ensuring that your message comes across exactly how you intended can be daunting. We can help!

  • “You know how sometimes you just can't word something effectively and it's killing you? You just tell her your concept and she will dish out the perfect thing. Every single time. It's crazy! It makes you want to smack your forehead with your palm and say, "Why didn't I think of that?" Because... you need Allissa! She knows how to ask the right questions to get it right for you.”

    -Michelle Ferguson, Happy Business Owner

  • “I have had the privilege of working with Allissa Blondin on three projects and look forward to continuing our work together in future. Her attention to detail, creativity, and commitment to ensuring my words carried the meaning I intended was truly a gift. She brilliantly transformed my children’s books through her magical structural, content and proof editing, and encouraged me to utilize skills I didn’t know I had. Not only is she remarkable with words, but she is also a pro at building a meaningful relationship with her clients to better engage with their stories. I have grown as a writer thanks to Allissa’s insight and guidance that have allowed me to pursue further writing endeavours. I consider myself a stronger creator, editor, and author because of her knowledge and expertise.”

    -Nicole Hoye, Author

  • "I have worked with and lead small teams in vigorous emerging companies to national enterprises. I realized early that selecting team members or organizational partners was critical to accomplishing any ambitious goals and also knew the glue that made the effort possible was outstanding communication – with each other, the organization and to the customers and not just what was shared but how. I brought those must-have standards into my first meeting with Allissa and knew within minutes she and her team were my best choice for anything I needed to wordcraft, manage or share with the world. Her knowledge and almost intuitive understanding of my messaging goals was uncanny and appreciated – that lead to my confidence building and the selection of her team to manage the next two books as well as the new website and social media projects. No question, Allissa has and does make the difference."

    -Dal Bryant– The Technology of Quiet

  • “Allissa and her team have changed the way I spend time on my business. Since Allissa took over the repurposing of livestreamed video and interviews into blog posts and social content, I have had more time to focus on what's next for the projects I am working on. Allissa does incredible work and offers feedback and encouragement. I'm so thankful a friend recommended her to me. Now it's my turn to pay it forward to other entrepreneurs!”

  • “Allissa has been a gift to me and my business. She has readily met my proofreading and support needs. She demonstrates first rate communication skills, completion of tasks, plus excellent editing and formatting skills. I particularly appreciate Allissa's collaborative style of work. When in doubt, she asks!”

    -Patricia Morgan MA CCC

  • "I highly recommend Allissa. She has an incredible way of taking the flat words you put on paper, and bringing them to life - creating a crystal clear picture that envelops your reader."

    -Vanessa McWilliams

  • "It took me some time to craft this testimonial for an incredibly talented writer and beautiful human being. To say perfection seems trite. Allissa’s talent is simply that she senses the words that we writers often struggle to find. I trust her knack is putting pen to paper exactly what I couldn’t quite get down and always BOOM, her intuition is superb."

    -Helen Rose, Author & Public Speaker

  • "I will be forever grateful that I hired Allissa and her team at The Feathered Pen to edit my cookbook. Allissa’s gentle way was perfect for this nervous first-time author. Her attention to detail and creative ideas for the formatting and structure of my book really brought the whole project together. I will use her editing services again and I highly recommend you do too!"

    -Wendy Hunter, Author Simply Meals: The Gluten, Dairy, and Egg Free Way

  • “I had stopped and started typing words… so many times. I was feeling frustrated and wondered if I was ever going to have anything of substance written down. After reading Allissa’s book, and having some video chats with her, I realized that I didn’t actually have to have words that made sense in any particular context, or the content organized FIRST. I just needed words on a page. I am encouraged that those words can be structured and organized and formatted in the future to resemble chapters, and eventually put together to become a book!! I’m so grateful to Allissa for encouraging me to start writing. For asking questions that prompted me. Her talents and abilities as a ghostwriter and a collaborator were exactly what I needed to get started."
