Over the past 25 years of my San Francisco copywriter career, I’ve written newsletter copy for dozens and dozens of printed, online and PDF publications. Some were monthly, some were quarterly, some were even translated from Japanese to English, then rewritten and edited by me. Here are my favorite newsletters:
1) PricewaterhouseCoopers Security & Technology, Internal Audit and Sustainability Practices Newsletters:
As a San Francisco copywriter for The Tech Spotlight, I wrote and managed the content of 32 monthly issues over a span of 36 months (some holiday and summer issues were combined). Each issue contained a lead story, a vendor spotlight, a case study, summaries of White Papers and PwC Publications, plus upcoming events and Webinars. Some issues even featured original thought leadership content written by me.

Here are samples of three quarterly publications that I wrote for other divisions of PwC:

• Download The Corporate Responsibility Report, Summer 2004 PDF
• Download The Project Advisor Newsletter, First Quarter, 2004 PDF.
Each of these newsletter copywriting issues for this client was delivered electronically as a PDF and online with a landing page for each issue and individual pages for each linked article.
