Why do these people make me THINK? (More hours, please …)

Luke Ayton, @LukeAyton

His essay on beer was superb. (Maybe I have a weakness here.) But what fascinates me most about this guy? He just doesn’t QUIT. Publishing Every. Damn. DAY.

Samantha Postman, @SamanthaPostman

This lady’s mind and story are simply incredible. She SEES STUFF. Zoomed with her for what was supposed to be a 1-hour podcast. Turned into 3.

Sean Anthony, @SeanAnthonySays

This is the guy I wish I’d been at his age. That’s SO ANNOYING. Where does he get his insights? WOW.

Samantha Demers, @SamanthaDemers

This lady has a BIG HEART. And a voice made for radio. Hosting Twitter Spaces all the time. Makes you feel like you’re sitting just across the table.

Arnold Flores, @aflorescpywrtr

I thought I knew this guy, but once Ship30 kicked off, I discovered there was

waaaaaaay

more in his cerebrum. It ain’t just his essays, either. It’s his TWEETS.

Paul French, @pspfrench

Not in the current cohort, I don’t think. But if you wanna know who’s the next great famous dirty-rich copywriter, my bet’s on this guy. His copy, his insights …. just WOW.

Rick Martinez, @PlanetboyRick

Another copywriter. (Guess there’s a theme here.) And MAN, has he done some stuff! His webpage copy just sucks you in and makes you WANNA.
