I like to make 3am ideas make sense.
<—Me, circa 2010
When I was in the third grade I was the weird kid, which like every weird kid, I didn’t realize until years later.
I was into everything nerdy in a pre-MCU world. Minecraft, comic books, iPod Touch, Lego —everything to make me a natural last pick in sports. I thought everyone was into that sort of stuff. Imagine how I felt when I found out there are people who’ve seriously never seen a single Star Wars movie. But despite not understanding, I was happy.
In high school I became more social when I discovered creative writing. It became my new outlet to explore my interests and connect with other people. I wrote sci-fi stories of my own and found joy in relating what I thought was cool with people who I never thought would have.
Why copywriting then and not creative writing?
Simply put, I like copywriting more because I like to help passionate people find their voice and see the value in things they would have previously overlooked.
