One thing I love about the copywriting world is how copywriters (usually) aren’t just looking out for themselves. Instead, they make friends with other copywriters, support one another, cheer each other on, and occasionally even feature each other on their own websites.

Haris Halkic, a fellow copywriter who specializes in email copywriting, devotes a whole page on his website to sharing other copywriters’ stories. How cool is that? He recently reached out to me and asked if he could interview me about my freelance writing career.

You can read the whole interview here.

In it, we discuss:

• how I first got into marketing & copywriting
• why I began freelancing
• what I love about freelancing as opposed to being an employee
• my copywriting heroes
• how I get ready for a writing session
• my suggestions for preparing for the switch to full-time freelancing
• and more!

If you have any friends or colleagues who are thinking of going into copywriting or freelancing in any other industry, please share this interview with them.

Many thanks to Haris for asking me to be a part of this interview!
