James Walsh is taking the next #copywritersunite night to Edinburgh on Monday 12 September – that’s next Monday! So if you’re in Edinburgh, join him from 7pm at The Queens Arms on Frederick Street.

I’ve been calling all copywriters to connect with each other on Twitter since 2012, and what a thriving community we’ve become.

We’re using the #copywritersunite hashtag all day every day. From around the world to down the road, we’re supporting and celebrating each other in the craft it’s clear we all love.

And in 2014, that spirit came to life in the real world too. Armed with only obscure Twitter bio photos, some of us braved physical socialising at #copywritersunite nights in London and Manchester, and they’ve been brilliant. We’ve made friends, met mentors, found work and teamed up with others.

If you’re in Edinburgh, join James and other copywriters on Monday. And if you’re anywhere else in the world, set up your own #copywritersunite nights and let me know so I can help spread the word.
