Description

Oh, and you’re still a total copywriting badass.

Your writing should be clear, aggressive and clever. How you say something still comes second to what you’re trying to say. So, if you're here to exercise your creative writing degree, or pontificate your way into a paycheck while you work on your novel, screenplay, or TV pilot, move on.
