Q1. Where are you from?
Mesa, AZ
Q2. How did you discover copywriting?
About ten years ago, I was looking for WFH jobs and found an opening with eHow writing short articles. I was already writing and publishing my fiction, so it wasn’t a difficult transition. At the time, SEO was still all keyword stuffing and icky, and more and more clients were looking for content spinning.
Out of boredom and frustration, I went back into the regular workforce.
After a few years of hiatus, I came back into writing, but this time with an eye toward the marketing side. Now, I have more experience and know what kinds of clients and jobs to avoid.
