This may very well be the âperfectâ writing gig⦠[The Writer’ s Life](
March 14, 2024 "Doing what you love is freedom.
Loving what you do is happiness."
– Lana Del Ray Hi {NAME}, 27 years ago, when AWAI was founded, the industry revolved almost exclusively around direct-mail sales letters. And copywriters made (and still make) A LOT of money crafting those long-form sales messages. Especially when you add in royalties! Yet even with the generous fees, some copywriters are simply not drawn to sales letter writing. Maybe you're one of them … and that's fine because there are many, many projects you can write that are in big demand and offer crazy high fees — without writing any sales copy! Gordon Graham is one of those writers … And he says when he discovered writing white papers, he realized they were the perfect match for his interest in research. He enjoys his writing specialty so much, that he became synonymous with it — he's literally known as "That White Paper Guy." And while he's written over 310 white papers, and counting, he's also been able to maintain a work-life balance, enjoying time with his family. He loves being able to take off for a long weekend with his beautiful wife Angie, or an extended vacation with their two girls. #thewriterslife [In today's featured article](, he reveals what he loves about writing these projects, and an insight into how they set you up for what he claims is "some of the easiest money I've ever made." He would know! Gordon charges around $1,000 per page — making this one of the highest-paid writing opportunities around. And he is constantly turning away clients — over 75 a year … Because the demand for white papers is much higher than the supply of trained white paper writers! Marketers struggle to find writers who can handle this critical piece of their content marketing strategy. That's why Gordon has dedicated a lot of energy to setting up best practices and formulas for writing successful white papers … And when you go through our [White Paper Certification](, you'll have access to key information he's curated over his 20-year career. Over the course of the four-week program, you'll also be guided by two experienced mentors, Pam Foster and Lisa Christoffel, both of whom have made great money writing white papers. Learning directly from experienced mentors is the fastest way to get up and running as a [certified White Paper Specialist]( who commands the highest fees.
