The Writer’s Life Writing Contest

This could be your first paid freelance copywriting job!

For this contest, you’re going to promote a pair of sleep buds. And, if yours is one of the three best submissions, we’re going to award you $200.

Not a bad payday for 83 words!

We’re doing this because we want you to have immediate, hands-on experience with digital copywriting.

We’ve done this before, and HUNDREDS of people have taken part. It’s fun!

A team of us here at AWAI gets involved in judging all the submissions, and it’s amazing to see so much creative writing.

And yes, we send out those $200 prizes to the winners!
