Peter Bowerman is a veteran commercial freelance writer, business coach, speaker and seminar leader. In 1993, with no previous paid writing experience and no writing background, he parlayed a 16-year career in sales and marketing into a commercial-freelancing practice-writing for businesses and creative agencies, and for hourly rates of $50-150+-taking it from fantasy to full-time in less than four months. His corporate client list has included Coca-Cola, BellSouth, IBM, UPS, the CDC, Georgia-Pacific, American Express, Mercedes-Benz and many others. He is the self-published author of four editions (2000, 2005, 2010 and 2021) of the multiple-award-winning title on lucrative commercial freelancing, Well-Fed Writer: Financial Self-Sufficiency as a Commercial Freelancer in Six Months or Less (www.wellfedwriter.com). He is the editor of The Well-Fed E-PUB, the critically acclaimed monthly ezine serving commercial writers worldwide, and publishing continuously since May 2002.
