An overview on the power of the words

We use them everyday. We use them to interact with others, we write them, read them, we sort them in our heads, we shout them, we whisper them and sometimes we mark our bodies with them. Words are the most powerful non-physical communication elements. Be it a copywriter, a proof-reader, a journalist or a content creator of any kinds, words are your most powerful weapons, as proven by the shortest complete sentence in English - "I am".

Words bow to the laws of orthography, morphology and semantics. Humans have the great capacity to understand the code of the words that compose a language, which is a complex system of words that bound together, create meaning. For example there are only two words in the English language that end with "-gry", and surprisingly, these two words have a great connection between them – "hungry" and "angry".

Artist profile – Cyriak

Cyriak is a UK based freelancing animator with a thirst for the surreal. He's done work for Coke and Coke Zero and also for Adult Swim and other project.

He's a great example of freelancing done right. The main programs he designs his trademark mind-blowing animations are Adobe Photoshop and After Effect. His work reminds me quite greatly of the movie Inception, as you can see, for example, a cow in a cow, within a cow.

Copywriter job opportunities in London

I've come across a great find for all of you actively looking for a copywriter job in and around London.

Copywriting is not a 9 to 5 type of job so be aware that this opportunity is not for everyone. You might have bright ideas but after all, it is about sending the right message to the right people.

Show-off your creative spirit

If you are one of those people who look up at the clouds and sees flying elephants and white-cotton jelly-beans that you can put it in words that can sell, then you're in the right place. Creativeness cannot be bought or sold, it can only be improved. Either you have it, or you don't.

Say NO! to the phrase 'I am bored'

Do you find yourself being bored? In this case the big red signs sais 'no-no!'. There is no such thing as a copywriter who complains that he or she is bored. Keep your mind creative and skillful. Read, learn, exercise your creative brain at all times.

Ode to the notebook - Saving ideas one by one

When creativity strikes you in the middle of the night, you have three options for immortalizing your idea.

• First option is simply going back to sleep, hoping that when you get up feeling refreshed, you will remember your Eureka thought (usually prompt to fail). 
• Second option – you reach for your smartphone, unlocking the screen with one eye open, opening your preferred note type app and trying to type in your thoughts one letter at a time. By this time, you probably forgot your idea anyway. High's as low's of the tech world, ey. 
• Third options (and my personal favorite) is the good old pen and paper. Nothing beats writing your ideas of an article, design or the next super-comfy chair model on a piece of paper.

I got a Moleskine notebook about two years ago from Amazon. Apart from the fact that they have a stylish design, the quality of the paper is acid-free and environmentally friendly (for all you Eco-freaks). And I got a free mini-poster of the original 'Star Wars: A New Hope' theatrical poster to go with it. Moleskine's notebook collections are well designed with an elastic band, an internal pocket and a fabric bookmark.
