"Get your work into design when presenting to clients. A blinking word doc feels editable. Which is dangerous." - @wellturnedwords

Best advice?

"Ask for help. You don't have to come up with everything alone. Get inspired." - @theenglishtweet

Know your value, writers. #RedactedRockstars #ConquerTheWord #Twitter

How do you break into a big agency?

"Know people. Network. Make the calls. Send the emails. The texts. Take em out to drinks." - @ltdailey

"Before copy. Before design. Without titles. Copywriters and art directors need to come together over the idea." - @shacharmeron #Redacted

[Redacted @RedactedCopy]

The diff. between print and digital writing? "The digital space attention span is shrinking. You gotta get them in two words." @ltdailey

[Redacted @RedactedCopy]

Looking to write that brilliant tagline? Get away from your desk. You don't even need to come back. (Ok, you should probably come back).

What makes a good copywriter?

"Finding the sexy in it . That nugget of excitement that brings your best work forward." @wellturnedwords

"A picture says 1000 words. That's a bloody lot of words. Try saying it in six good ones." - @theenglishtweet #RedactedRockstars
