Guest guest Posted August 9, 2004 Report Share Posted August 9, 2004 I used to be a paste-up gal too. I used to sell print ads, advice the business on what to say, paste up the ad and send it to the printer, then collect all the money too. I liked it. I can’t draw, I used art books and picked out pictures, shrank or increased the size to fit, and choose the colors and font. I also took pictures and submitted them with the verbage. I have always been fascinated with advertising. I still am. I am a published writer but haven’t written anything but ad copy in many years.
