I am completely awash in projects. They’re coming in from everywhere–South America, Australia, the UK, Assaraf’s company, Puyallup … where else? WHEW! This is a good problem to have but… all right, already! I’m ready to call it a day! I still have some testimonials to truncate before I retire for the evening, though, so […]

I’ve been digressing for a good couple of months. I need to get back to the reason I started this blog: to teach DIY’ers how to write great copy for your own websites and other marketing materials and to help aspiring copywriters learn how to write better… It’s going to take time. This isn’t something
OK, Back to Basics… Read More »
WOO HOO! Just received an email from the Aussie dentist. He wants to know if I’m available for additional work. Wheee! And a person in my networking group gave me a testimonial today saying that when I copy-enhanced her existing website her secretary started taking copy from it to use when responding to inquiries via

I am feeling so blessed right now… Something happened this evening that I didn’t expect for at least a couple of months, probably longer. This afternoon I had about a 20-minute phone conversation with John Assaraf and Mariana, one of his staff members. We discussed a way forward together that includes writing copy for his

Here it is–in all its glory! I posted this photo (and a few others) on Facebook and already have another client for Eli Struck of Enlighting Struck Design in Kent–how cool is that? I also received an invitation from Carolyn Howard-Johnson to write an article about how this updated look has already all-but-paid for itself

I just completed a landing page for a client in Egypt. It took a couple hours but I felt inspired so it went very well; the editing process didn’t amount to much. I sent it off for him to look over and let him know I’ll tackle and tweak tomorrow afternoon (my time) as I

One of my power partners says he is on the cusp of getting the mailing list of someone who will be retiring from the web design/website building business shortly. When he does, he says he will be sending me lots of clients who will need great copy. WOO HOO! When it rains, it pours! Having

Starting last week, I turned over a new leaf. For every new client I serve, I’m going to send them a personalized Thank You card (yes, in the mail) to thank them for their trust. We’ve been ruined by email. It’s just so easy to dash off a “thanks” and scarcely remember that we did

The changes the UK Solicitor wanted were easy to do so they didn’t take long. She added talking points I didn’t have before, so I needed to add those and finesse them into the copy, but they all worked well, so no major rewriting or reorganization was required. Today I’m planning to help Jackie put

The Aussie dentist had a few final tweaks for me to perform. He’s a day ahead of me so our weekends aren’t the same; my Friday is his Saturday and my Sunday is his Monday, and he’s a busy, busy man, so I’m making the changes he wants this weekend, since they’re so minor. He
