Welcome! I am Lisa White, a freelance writer based in San Antonio, Texas.

Please wander through my works, and take in the colors, textures and nuances along the way. You will find prose, poetry, ad copy, legal writing, and other formats to enjoy. Be sure to read the descriptions of each piece before you follow the links, as each description rounds out the story behind the story.

I offer a vast range of translations: authenticity, entertainment, humor, insight, professionalism - from idea to finished concept, whatever the essence of your voice, I will capture it.
