Any aspiring writers out there?

[Dale King]

Any aspiring writers out there? Well, I've got news for you! I just posted an interview on my website, I did with author Peter Bowerman. Peter is the author of the 2000 award-winning Book-of-the-Month Club selection, The Well-Fed Writer, and its 2005 companion volume, The Well-Fed Writer: Back For Seconds, a triple award-finalist (both self-published).

His books have become how-to “standards” on starting a lucrative commercial freelancing business – writing for businesses, large and small, and for rates of $50-125+ an hour. He chronicled his self-publishing success (50,000 copies of his first two books in print and a full-time living for over five years).

If you're a writer or aspire to be one, I highly recommend you check out this interview. Enjoy!

Hello,

I just got finished reading " The Well-Fed Writer. For the second time. And Peter Bowerman really knows his stuff! I took in account everything he said, but I am still having doubts. I am in the process of starting my own writing service and I am doing the market research. I am developing a list for my target market. However once I complete the list, I don't know how to approach them. My fear is that I am kind of a novice, and I don't want to look like I don't know what I am talking about. I really would like to take the courses that are on awaionline.com they have the masters of copywriting. I too got my idea to turn to business writing from Bob Bly - like Peter Bowerman. Is there anyone that can give me any advice on how to become more confident approaching my target market?
