You know what I love the most about being a copywriter?  Yes, I love the words. Yes, I love the creativity and imagination.  Yes, I love some of the exciting projects I get to be a part of.  And yes, I love it when my work is published and it’s there for the whole world to see — although I secretly dread it too.

Now, as companies settle into a new way of working, have we done enough to incorporate an ethical freelance hiring process into our blended model?
