- Where Are You From?Singapore originally. I quit my job 8 years or so ago and hit the road. Worked as a dive instructor. Lived in a van in the US and Canada and rock climbed all over. Currently holed up in Macedonia enjoying life.
- Favourite Food?Frickin’ Singapore food is the best in the world. Promise. I’ve been to a lot of countries, but I go home to eat. And see Grandma and Mom. Laksa, Hokkien Mee, Mee Pok, Bak Chor Mee, don’t even get me started or I will involuntarily salivate in a Pavlovian response.
- Favourite Person?Grandma. She’s frickin’ 94. And Mom.
- What Are Your Charges?
Totally negotiable. Some of my long term clients are still at $0.03/word but they started me out on this little journey and I don’t have the heart to raise prices. Yep, call me sentimental.
Otherwise, I average about $0.05 for long form, and $0.15 for copywriting. My hourly rate is US$60/hr.
- What Tools Do You Use?
Urgh. I hate tools. I have Grammarly Pro, Hemingway App, and Copyscape Premium. But sometimes they are WRONG. I only use them as kinda a way to make me check my stuff and make sure I’m not wrong.
- What’s Your Turnaround Time?
I didn’t know what else to say in the FAQ cos’ I hate talking about myself, but I can tell you one thing. If you want something done fast, all you gotta do is say “Hey Addy, I need this in 10 hours, can you help?” and I will literally drop everything and do your stuff.
Otherwise, please give me a week for long forms of 1500 to 3000 words and about 3 days for copy.
- How Much Can You Write A Day?
Good God I’m having trouble filling this FAQ up. Well, I average 2000 to 4000 words a day.
