Commercial Writing

what i do...
____________________

As mentioned elsewhere on this site, I have been writing nearly as long as I have been reading – and that means from a very early age. I have been a very avid reader from the first time I ever read a book and was moved to try and write a story soon thereafter.

I have not, however, been very good at finishing things. And although I have started writing a number of stories and novels over the years, I have yet to finish one or likewise submit it for potential publishing. But I am not one to give up on a dream and I still believe that some day I will finish at least something and try to get it published.

And actually, the sense of accomplishment that finishing something would give me far outweighs whether I achieve publishing or not! I have also written a fair amount of poetry (poems are far easier to finish!)

Commercial Writing
_____________________

But poetry and fiction is not what this page is about, after all. It is entitled “Commercial Writing” for a purpose. I get paid to write things that people need to have written. Commercial writing includes, just to name a few:

Annual Reports   Articles   Brochures
Business Letters   Case Studies   Catalog Copy   Direct Mail   Flyers   Manuals
Newsletters   Press Releases   Proposals
Reports   Sales Letters Web Copy

While I haven’t yet had the pleasure of writing each and every specific type of document listed above, I have, at one time or another written all manner of things from “legalese” and technical documents to stories for children; and I know that I can write just about everything in between. A lot of my experience has been sales and marketing- related, so I am well-versed in basic collateral materials. Additionally, because I find the idea so attractive and well-suited to my abilities, I am currently enrolled in a direct mail copywriting course through AWAI. I have also availed myself of all the books and training materials I can find on this, and related subjects. Bottom line: If you need help with just about any kind of writing, you can count on me!
