Day One....Looking Ahead

So the little mom and pop advertising shop I have written for going on three years now just downsized to one less copywriter - me. Now the pessimistic Amy of old could have really been tripped up by this little bump in the road. But somehow, the new, 40+ older-and-wiser Amy is seeing it as a blessing in disguise...maybe not for the short term, but further down the road.

I have found during the past three years that I truly love to tell people's stories. It was so exciting for me to learn about a new client - especially those "under the radar" businesses who were just going about their day doing great things like it's nothing at all. Case in point - Comprehensive Prosthetics and Orthotics. These people are truly amazing individuals who change people's lives every single day. I had the distinct pleasure to write a feature story about two of their inspirational clients for the Healthy Cells publications in Bloomington and Peoria. Check out the Bloomington copy on my website at http://www.amykennard.com/portfolio.shtml or pick up the July edition of the Peoria Healthy Cells, available in grocery stores, doctor's offices, and other public places around town.
