Fresh off releasing the new iPhone in London at CopyCon.
What a brilliant 2 days. My only regret, not speaking with every single person at the event. It just means I'll have to come back next year.
Shout out to @wordmancopy for his photography skills (and friendship). Shout out to you too @allcopymel . Just cuz.
Dan Nelken is our guest on the 348th episode of The Copywriter Club Podcast. Dan is a copywriter and author of A Self-Help Guide for Copywriters. If you’re a creative, you may have fallen into the inner critic rabbit hole that keeps you in a cycle of stuck. But Dan gives practical and actionable steps to move away from creative burnout and into a process that helps you turn surface-level ideas into substance.
Tune into the episode to find out:
- How to come up with ideas without letting self-doubt, inner critic, and the feeling of stuck get in the way.
- The bucket exercise – how to trick your brain into creating ideas.
- What’s the creative process and what tools are useful?
- The two reasons procrastination is keeping you from total creativity.
- Why you should use AI to feel inspired rather than disposable.
- How to create a swipe folder system and maximize it.
- Do you have a habit of following through?
- How to make your emotions work for you.
- The variety of work copywriters can do and industries they can dive into.
- How to keep your business alive without feeling resentful and burned out.
- Creativity outside of writing – how do we do it?
- How Dan’s been able to scale back his client projects by 40%.

I normally avoid things like this but I think I'll have to turn up to this one.
And I hope you do too. Here's what I stole from my friends #CopywritersUnite in the UK:
"#CopywritersUnite nights are informal
drinks in a pub with copywriters and copy lovers.
No tickets. No agenda. No speakers."
Any reco for venue? I'm guessing anywhere from 30-50 word nerds. Field party?
