Hi, I'm Stacy

Founder of the The Story Stem

I'm a freelance memoir, self-help, lifestyle, and fiction writer/ghostwriter based in St. Louis, Missouri.

I'm thrilled you're here.

Writing has always been a major part of my life. When I was four years old, I asked Santa for a typewriter because I wanted to be an author. As a child I wrote short stories and created little picture books, as a high school student I was the Editor-in-Chief for the school newspaper, and as an adult I have written a fiction novel and self-published a children's book, featuring my dogs as the main characters. I have channeled my passion for writing into my business and have since ghostwritten numerous memoirs, self-help, romance, and fiction books, as well as health and wellness, education, and lifestyle articles and blog posts.

Writing has given me the opportunity to meet people from all over the world. I believe everyone has a story to tell, and by sharing our stories, we can connect to and inspire others. I thoroughly enjoy collaborating with my clients to bring their stories to life.

In addition to my extensive freelance writing career, I hold a Master of Arts in Teaching and a Master of Fine Arts in Writing. I have taught English and Creative Writing at both the high school and university levels.

Yours truly,
Stacy Burnett
