About
Sara’s initial career plan was to be a stand-up comedian. She loved the time she spent in comedy, but ultimately, she decided to focus on her very enjoyable day job in a Boston advertising agency, writing copy. Her love for copywriting never abated, and today, she runs a one-woman copywriting shop called Shiny Red Copy. She’s written everything from radio spots to highway billboards and promoted everything from marshmallows to mutual funds. In recent years, Sara has aimed her writing skills at helping people avoid common mistakes in English. She’s written the book Unflubbify Your Writing: Bite-Sized Lessons to Improve Your Spelling, Punctuation, and Grammar and loves to give presentations about how to navigate our tricky language.
