Elizabeth Gordon interviews Peter Bowerman author of The Well-Fed Writer on the Chic Perspectives Show

00:00 / 0:29:01

Today on The Chic Perspectives Show, I got to meet Peter Bowerman, author of The Well-Fed Writer, a fantastic how to guiding to achieving financial self-sufficincy as a commercial freelancer in six months or less.

If youâ€™ve ever wondered how to separate â€œstarvingâ€ from â€œwriterâ€, this book has all the answers you need and will give you a perfect plan for how to turn your writing abilities into cold hard cash.

Peter talked about how businesses of all sizes generate an enormous volume of writing projects, and how in todayâ€™s downsized business world, much of that work gets outsourced to freelancers.Â If you like to write and donâ€™t mind the fabulous work from home lifestyle that goes along with the occupation, Peter can tell you exactly how to get your share of this huge and growing market for commercial freelance writers.

What exactly is commercial copywriting?Â you may ask… well Peter Bowerman shares his wealth of knowledge on this large and growing industry, and why you donâ€™t need a lot of experience to make a well-fed living at it.

Commercial copywriting is a great field for stay at home Moms, and Peter talked about why the work is so popular with women who are looking for a good work, life balance with a profitable career with flexibility and no commute.

Peter talked about what people can be doing right now, to lay the groundwork for a career in commercial copywriting while they may be working at other jobs now.

For a comprehensive review of the industry and how you can start to pick up jobs immediately with little or no experience, check out the latest edition of The Well-Fed Writer at www.wellfedwriter.com

Thanks again Peter for coming on The Chic Perspectives Show today to share your expertise on creating a highly profitable business as a freelance commercial copywriter.

More Weight Loss Tips For The Holiday Fat Season From A Slimmer You Author LA Justice

00:00 /

On today’s show Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy had our good friend LA Justice, author A Slimmer You come on for some weight loss tips to help you get through the holidays. She says Fat Season is coming and you have to have a plan to get through it at the same weight as you entered. Here come all those holiday parties and the key to surviving them is to eat first before you get there – do not go to a party hungry. And then when you are at the party just take a taste. Instead of a whole dessert – just take a bite. Remember your stomach is normally the size of a one liter bottle but it can stretch to the size of a gallon milk jug. Don’t test its limits. Avoid those cheese cubes and desserts – you can consume close to 1000 calories in a blink eating those foods. Remember just because food is free doesn’t mean you have eat everything – you are not a bear getting ready to hibernate for the Winter.

You Are Born To Run

You Are Born To Run

00:00 /

In today’s Wellness Minute Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy explain why humans are built for distance running. Almost half a million people competed in marathons and about 90% of those runners have suffered from some sort of training injury. A new book titled Born To Run by Christopher McDougall talks in depth about this and that excites Dr Fitness for a couple of reasons. Number one because it is also a Springsteen song and Number two he too loves to run. According to this book the human body is designed to run long distances. From an evolutionary standpoint that is how we could best hunt for food. We were not as fast as the animals we hunted but we could track them for long distances and wear them down and when they got tired we would kill them and eat them. What makes us good distance runners is our ability to sweat and the length of our toes. The book also talks about the importance of proper footwear when running – thin soled running shoes seem to be better than those heavily padded ones. Listen right now to hear Dr Fitness’ tips.
