American Writers And Artists Inc Announces 2011 “$10K Spec Challenge” Winner

Nov. 18, 2011 - PRLog -- American Writers & Artists Inc. (AWAI), www.awaionline.com, today announced their 2011 “$10K Spec Challenge Winner”, Mindy Tyson-McHorse, of Albuquerque, NM.

To win the challenge, Mindy submitted a possible promotion, or sales letter, for the FastTrack to Success Copywriting Bootcamp. Of the many submissions, Mindy’s letter was chosen and sent to AWAI’s members to promote the event.

“Along with being a talented writer, Mindy is what I consider a dream freelancer – she thinks beyond the project she's assigned – always trying to figure out how to make the campaign even more successful, she's constantly presenting new ideas, and she ALWAYS meets her deadlines,” said AWAI Co-Managing Partner Rebecca Matter.

Mindy, a six-figure copywriter and familiar face to AWAI members through her work on The Writer’s Life and Wealthy Web Writer publications, had this to say about her award:

“Winning is the most incredible validation I’ve experienced, because I did it in my own way, on my own time. It’s like Bob Bly says — ‘Copywriting isn’t a career, because there’s no career path.’ I’ve since realized this is a lifestyle choice and that everything good that happens now is because I took the initiative to DO something. Although I have to say I got a ton of support and encouragement from AWAI, from copywriting colleagues, and from my family, for which I’m incredibly grateful!”

For those who missed this year’s award ceremony, AWAI's 2012 FastTrack to Copywriting Success Bootcamp will take place October 24- 27, 2012 in Delray Beach, FL.
