Informative, but entertaining Company Newsletters that people actually look forward to reading to bitter end.

So there.
Multiple "great successes" in writing Executive Speeches to entertain, inform, even inspire, without being schmaltzy.
M.A. Theology, B.A. Sociology. Studied 9 yrs college/grad for Catholic priesthood, Left with 1 yr to go when they brought up that celibacy clause. Now married, 3 kids; after 1 1/2 yrs in South America. Self-wrote/published, now sell two educational, but laugh-out-loud (I'm told) newspapers of historical fiction for 1st Christmas and 1st Easter.
Perform 2-act, 1-actor 90-minute, self-written solo theater at random churches for 500-800 avg audience. People stand and clap.

You're Priority 1.
I don't move my career ahead much without you being 100% satisfied with my work.
So I'll keep communication wide open until we're both satisfied that we've got the best piece of writing on the planet for exactly what you're trying to accomplish.
E-mail is easiest, it seems. I'd welcome contact as often as you like, to get the job done. Unless meeting with someone, I'm generally available by email or cell from 7:00am.-10:00pm; M-F, but I can float that, too, if necessary, . . . unless the Pistons are playing. Y'know.
If you use Guru's Guidelines: Safe Pay Escrow, that would probably benefit both of us the most. Besides, you might pick up a sweet Benjamin just for tryin' it.
BTW, if I've earned it, and therefore you can say something nice about me and my work afterwards, . . . I'll do the same for you. But be real clear about what you'd like me to do to earn that. And feel free to shoot straight. If I can't take constructive criticism in this business, I might as well put a gun to my head awready. Besides, . . .
. . . my hope is that we can begin to build a long, lasting business partnership here. I'm already happily married. Just looking for more business friendships, you understand. Seems like a cyber-marriage might be a little unfulfilling, anyway. Hell, I might as well go back to the priesthood stuff.
