Peter Bowerman “Love to Write But Hate to Starve?”
Keep Your Wallet & Passion for Writing ‘Well Fed’ with Lucrative Commercial Freelancing
A good writing income is closer than you think. Join veteran commercial writer Peter Bowerman in a practical, info-packed session as you explore what commercial writing is, what qualities you need to succeed, how to build a portfolio, where the work is, how to find it, what to charge, how good you have to be, and more.
Freelancers who make above-average livings often know something other writers don’t: That adding “commercial” writing to their mix offers the opportunity to make $60 to $125-plus an hour, giving them the time and space to pursue their “bliss” writing. In today’s downsized business world, companies of all sizes pay freelancers handsomely to handle many writing tasks.
Peter Bowerman is a veteran commercial freelancer and business coach, is the self-published author of the three award-winning Well-Fed Writer titles on lucrative commercial freelancing—writing for companies, and for hourly rates of $50-125 or more. (www.wellfedwriter.com). The 2010 compilation of the two original editions—TWFW and TWFW: Back for Seconds — was a winner of four industry awards.
