| After several years in the CIA (my cover-an international singing sensation-I'm sure you can guess who), I decided to set up a home office and write full time. I chose the midwest due to my love of pollen and sneezing. My copywriting business is called egghead creative. I write just about every kind of marketing copy (websites, email, brochures, ads, white papers, etc.) for a variety of corporate clients. I'm trying to move to more editorial and fiction writing. |
