Copy writer – Do You Write Fiction?
If you are any kind of writer at all, you must have dreamed this dream. At some point in your life, you must surely have wanted to write your own novel.
Frankly, I have never met any one who loves writing but never dreamed of writing fiction. It is a rare breed that is so focused on writing press releases, great headlines and killer ad copy that they do not even think about penning a story or two. If I had a dollar for every story that I started but never finished, I could afford that Wii.
So, head on over to Men with Pens – they are going to do a series on how you can write better fiction. I’ll be there.

Maybe you’ll get a dollar per page for that story you end up publishing and buy yourself the Wii you’ve always wanted. But you have to finish what you’ve started… ;)
Thanks for the link, and I’ll look forward to having you at our blog!

Thats a good point but as a copywriter myself there is a story in each project.
In each and every letter it’s a mini story.
I like it that way, I don’t have to develop characters over such long time frames and in such a short letter you have to get the reader engaged at a much quicker rate.
Thanks.
