Brian Clark who does such a great job over at CopyBlogger, has managed to boil his years of copywriting experience down to 5 simple looking steps: Prepare, Organize, Write, Edit, Review
For sure he knows good simply copy writing isn’t simple, but the way he’s broken it down does give a newcomer to the art a way to approach a copywriting job because he details exactly what each section actually needs. He even links to a questionnaire he uses to prepare.
If you’re interested in copywriting or just want a great review, this post is perfect.

Hey Anne, thanks for the link! But I didn’t write that article, Dean Rieck did. :)

Anotgher resource writers might find helpful is James Braush’s article on Writing for the Long Haul:

He talks about how to stay in mental shape for writing, which also helps in getting organized and then editing once the drafting is done.
Thanks Ann!
