I've written:

Books that I've gotten to see at Barnes & Nobles.

For magazines that I've gotten to see on newsstands.

Advertising that I've seen on billboards in Times Square.

Top articles for online magazines read by millions.

The scripts for award-winning educational DVDs.

 

I'm really liking this writing thing.
