Please inquire.
? What
size or scope of projects will you
undertake?
I manage
and work on most all projects of any size. I include the
services of a professional graphic designer and illustrator as a
consultant or co-producer on most jobs. When you fuse crisp and
clear copywriting with just the right design you add great power
to the message, to the work itself, to the impact it makes. I expand
capabilities when others are needed, or for large projects involving
much writing and deadlines. I call upon other experienced, professional,
freelance copywriters, printers, specialty printers, etc., ones that I
know and have experience with, when needed. Regardless, I manage the entire process.
? Are there great quotes that you follow that
describe solid writing?
"Vigorous writing is concise. A sentence should contain no unnecessary
words for the same reason that a machine should have no unnecessary parts."
- - William Strunk, Jr.
Hawkeye
Services name?
?
What was the basis of choosing the company name, using Hawkeye? And is this from the TV show, Mash,
with Hawkeye Pierce?
"While I like Mash and Hawkeye
Pierce, no. For me, first the word Hawkeye comes from hawks which
have extremely keen vision, four times what human beings have. The
Hawkeye I had in mind was Hawkeye from the book Last of the Mohicans,
by James Fenimore Cooper. The character, Hawkeye, in the 1800's, with a
long rifle was a crack shot. He just didn't miss. Sharp. Proficient.
Expert marksman. Always on the mark."

Freedom of Speech
“Those who profess to favor freedom, and
yet deprecate agitation, are men who want rain without thunder and
lightning. They want the ocean without the roar of its many waters.”
-
- Frederick Douglass
The First Amendment to the Constitution,
the most basic of rights, is the right
of free speech, freedom of the press. This right is under attack by our government and
private groups. Censorship is manifest in our government, schools,
universities, libraries, and our press. It is obvious. Stop all censorship. Face the
fact that when censorship exists, regardless of motive, freedom ends -
that is "your freedom," so make no mistake about it. http://www.ncac.org/
