Hi all! It would be good to know what everyone's copywriting specialty is. That way if one of us needs some input or wants to refer work we can help each other out.
If you agree use this thread to post your mad skillz!
I create mostly how-to types of copywriting work. I also do several eBooks that are also how-to's as well as autobiographies as a ghostwriter. I have a historical novel out and I am working on another.
Like George, I rewrote that first one more times than I can count.
I have done four screenplays also. I started out writing for trucker's magazines. I drove a truck for fourteen years.
I came up through the ranks writing catalog copy. My talent for writing short, hard-hitting copy also translates very well into writing autoresponders, so I'm trying to establish myself as the "go-to" guy for ARs to the higher end IMers. So far, so good. ;)
