Here I am on the cover of "Barefoot Writer Magazine," a monthly publication devoted to inspiring and educating writers worldwide with articles, interviews and practical advice.

Katie Yeakle and Rebecca Matter of American Writers and Artists, Inc. (AWAI) selected my submission as one of the winning entries in their annual copywriting competition. They presented me with a check for $1,000 for the headline and lead I wrote promoting AWAI's "Accelerated Program for Six-Figure Copywriting." (Photo courtesy AWAI)

I successfully completed American Writers & Artists, Inc., "Circle of Success" program — the world's premier 2-year training program for Direct Response Copywriters.
