“Mindy Long has written articles for me with a variety of publications. She is able to master technical subject matter quickly and gets sources to provide excellent quotations that bring stories to life. Mindy is the hardest working writer I have ever worked with in my long career as an editor, has never turned down an assignment, and willingly turns around stories and rewrites on very short notice, when necessary.”

BRUCE HARMON, MANAGING EDITOR CONDENSER, PAST MANAGING EDITOR TRANSPORT TOPICS, EDITOR ITECH AND EDITOR EQUIPMENT AND MAINTENANCE UPDATE

“Mindy’s work ethic and attitude makes her a pleasure to work with. She meets every deadline and addresses any editing questions quickly and professionally. Regardless of the assignment, her writing makes it clear she has taken the time to research and understand the topic ahead of time.”

NEIL ABT, EDITORIAL DIRECTOR, FLEET OWNER

“I thoroughly enjoy working with Mindy Long on feature stories that she writes for Transport Topics, as well as its many supplements, including Equipment & Maintenance Update. Not only is Mindy an excellent writer and reporter, she keeps editors updated on her schedule and how best to contact her if needed, if a question ever arises. This is quite helpful, particularly when it comes to tight deadlines. Mindy has numerous sources in the trucking-freight transportation & logistics industries to report on a variety of subjects, including equipment, trucking technology and regulatory issues, among others. In short, Mindy is a true professional and an absolute pleasure to work with.”

FRAN MATSO LYSIAK, FEATURES EDITOR, TRANSPORT TOPICS

“Mindy Long has been a client and a freelance writer for my company. In both roles, she has been the consummate professional. She understands what makes a compelling story and then delivers. She meets all deadlines and produces great work. I recommend her without reservation.”

BOBBY STARK, PRESIDENT, PARTHENON PUBLISHING

“Mindy’s talents as a writer and journalist extend well into related areas, including problem solving, defining alternative research approaches, and structuring sensible, effective steps to achieve meaningful results. Mindy is a critically important participant in a very prominent annual research study and is a valuable source of insight, advice and strategic guidance. Perhaps one of her greatest attributes is that she is a self-starter and provides useful ideas and guidance that strengthen our study. She is an indispensable member of our team, and her positive personality and willingness to help contribute to the study’s overall success.”

Her industry knowledge, attention to detail, and ability to engage both audiences and stakeholders make her someone we trust and clients request.”

PETER LOVATO, ASSOCIATE PUBLISHER, ENDEAVOR BUSINESS MEDIA

“Mindy Long is a skilled, versatile writer and an absolute joy to work with. I particularly value her ability to thoroughly research complex, technical subjects; she easily identifies the core issues or messages and communicates them clearly and creatively. She connects so readily with people, making her adept at interviewing and humanizing a story. I look forward to editorial planning calls because she always brings greats ideas and new sources to the discussion. I have always been impressed with her professionalism and flexibility.”
