I just spent all night working on a deck and adding unnecessary design elements to it. The art team is probably gonna revamp the entire thing and I knew it the whole time lol. Does this ever happen to you? I'm not complaining .. this is voluntary work. What's a project that wasn't even a big deal for which you've pulled an all-nighter?

My skin has always been a little dry. I’ve used plain coconut oil on my face for years (as a moisturizer) but recently stopped because my fave would just get red after application. Not itchy but I definitely felt like my skin was reacting. Any suggestions for non-acne related calming face washes or moisturizers?

How do you say “buy this product” in a headline without saying “buy this product”?

Sincerely,
A Junior Copywriter with a shitty brief and an even shittier turnover time 😭😭🥹

Feel really terrible at writing sketch comedy. I think this is just something I just cannot do. Anyone with tips? Advice? Anything?

Do you charge your clients for time spent on email communication?

Does your art partner contribute to visual descriptions when you’re working on scripts?

I'm new-ish to copywriting after working as news reporter and TV host for years. I'd like to start putting together a portfolio of my writing, but I'm not sure what a marketing copywriting "book" should look like. I have emails, blog articles, promotions etc. Any good examples or resources you could share?

Has anyone put work in their book that the client denied? I wrote some pretty great lines for a client and it’s like they hate creativity. I really want to put them in my book, is that a bad idea?

Any copywriters (in branding/otherwise) currently report to a strategist instead of a CD? Trying to have an open mind about them approving copy without judgement but it’s like pulling teeth for me.

I don't know if this is a recent change but I’m seeing postings for junior copywriter/community manager roles. Have these roles always been attached or posted at a junior level? Is this merged role worth considering as someone young in the industry with more traditional intern and freelance copy experience.

I'm not the best at coming up with lines on the spot. I can write good lines when I'm by myself in front of my laptop, but not when I'm talking with my CD or someone else. Is this considered an issue?

So, you’ve reached the stage of your career where you care more about cashing a fat paycheck than making “creative ads”. You’d rather have the resources and free time to fulfill your creative itch outside of work than try to sell the next big idea to an 28 year old marketing manager with an annual budget of 150k. How do you make the absolute most money as a copywriter while still working a 9-5? Asking for... a... friend?

Anyone do any work in web3/blockchain/metaverse?

I’m a copywriter and I’m shite at writing cover letters, which makes me feel like a fraud. Any other writers feel this way? Any advice?

I keep getting recruiters asking to apply for new roles, which is what I thought I wanted because I’m not growing at my agency. But I’m so fatigued I don’t even know if I want to stay in advertising. Have y’all left or took a break to do something different? What did you do?

Would a full time copywriter salary be higher for client side vs. agency side? Debating with a couple friends on it. Some say same. Some say lower at each. NYC. I know there are variables but...

Does anyone else balk a little bit when applying for jobs and the recruiter or job description mentions a lot of blog writing and other content like that?

Who’s working in house in LA? Where? Doing what?
