I've done copywriting projects for Dave Harland and Ben McKinney separately, and also for their copywriting agency Copy Or Die.

Now, I've joined the Copy Or Die team part-time as...well that's my first job, deciding on my job title 🀩

Should have "Queen" in though, right?

When do you work your best? I love a late night sesh. My brain kicks in about 8pm onwards πŸ™ƒ Which is convenient in a way because otherwise I only get the school day to work.

Can't do too many evenings per week tho or my brain juice runs out.

When I did it between having my two girls I completed it and went on to do a couple of half marathons. This time I keep not getting enough chances in the week to get it done so to be safe I keep doing w3r3, with no pressure to accelerate. Fancy starting it up again? πŸ˜‰

I'm no expert (and it's a sidenote) but the environmental impact of moving $4bn of gold by air sounds significant.
