I enjoy figuring out what sparks interest in people. I love the hunt for that nugget, that one little thing about something that I know will set off little lightning bolts of excitement in people. There's very little more satisfying than creating something that causes people to react strongly; to cause people to feel in the way I want them to feel.
I get that satisfaction from writing magazine articles and fiction stories. Oddly enough, I also get that feeling from creating an ad campaign or writing marketing content. This is why I chose to follow several marketing and copywriting blogs.
Copyblogger offers advice to marketers, copywriters, and entrepreneurs. This week, it has several articles about content and content writing. AdWeek: AdFreak highlights the best and the worst in advertising. The articles tell what's right and wrong about ad campaigns whether through design or mistake. Marketing Pilgrim keeps up with interactive marketing strategies, an important part of modern marketing.
I also chose two of my classmates' blogs. Sebastian strikes me as someone I would get along well with. He appears to have a definite creative streak and is someone who not only thinks outside of the box, he lives outside of it. That's my kind of person.
Samantha has a passion for her craft that I like. She also has the same desire as I do to chase after the dream of doing something she enjoys for a living rather than continuing to settle for something that she doesn't mind doing, but doesn't put the fire in her blood.
