Without question, Infinity is our most beloved membership … A professional writer's resource that ensures you have what you need, when you need it … So you not only have the confidence to take on any project a client asks of you … but also the knowledge to do it well. Like Infinity Member Ramon Matta says: "With Infinity, I feel confident applying for jobs that may need skills I don't have because I know I can handle any content request with access to the vast training courses." Again, tomorrow is officially "launch" day … But you can see the deal — and everything you get — [right here](! Hope you're having a great Saturday, Katie Yeakle

Starr's "Later Start" Career Change This month, The Professional Writers' Alliance (PWA) is featuring an enlightening and inspirational series of articles by longtime AWAI Member Starr Daubenmire. Starr thought she was on the countdown to retirement. Instead, at 57, she unexpectedly lost her job. Then, she found a whole new career in the copywriting world. It's allowed her to restore her earning power, reclaim control over the shape of her career, and reach back to indulge in several bucket-list dreams of her own. Coming into this profession as she did, Starr has a lot of empathy for other writers who may be getting a late start in their writing careers. In her series for PWA, Starr addresses: - The emergence of the "Third Age" as a career phenomenon for many older workers, which provides a new space for success and self-exploration …
- Which skills you really need to succeed at this age (or any age, really) so you can appreciate what you already have and strategically work on any gaps you identify …
- How to navigate the generational time warp, from clients younger than you to the reactions of friends and family (of all ages) to your new activities and earnings …
- Ways to leverage your day-to-day experiences and life events to unlock new clients and unexpected project bonuses, so everything becomes an opportunity for you … Plus more, of course — Starr speaks frankly from her lived experience and the work she's still doing now, in her 70s, to use copywriting as a form of life enhancement. You can read Starr's series on the PWA site.
