Lawrence Payne . The Pen of Human Intelligence

It’s hard to believe (at the time of this recording) that it's April, and hopefully we all survived tax day and are able to get out and enjoy some of the beautiful Spring foliage that’s popping up all over.

On this Spring day, I’ve invited Lawrence Payne to join me as my guest. He is an award-winning copywriter, editor, voice actor and composer, who has worked with some of the world's most progressive companies such as Yamaha Digital Musical Instruments, Yamaha Audio, Teac, Hitachi and Brother. Many of them in his capacity as a senior copywriter at Intermart Advertising/Tokyo.

He’s received awards for his creative work featured in prestigious national and regional competitions and he has a reputation for excellence in technical documentation and communications. Lawrence has over 32 years of professional experience covering subjects ranging from music, cultural history, philosophy, religion, robotics, telecom and travel.

Lawrence has contributed widely to consumer and trade publications, including the graphic-design journal How. As a knowledgeable musician and critic, he has written for Guitar Player magazine, served as associate editor at Music Connection magazine and studied with the Latin guitar virtuoso Jorge Strunz. He produces the YouTube channel Deep Space Theater, which features his own musical compositions. Among his recent literary efforts are the books of a Zen Buddhist abbot whose influence is spread throughout Asia to the Americas and Europe.

However, with all of the aforementioned projects, the one title that’s missing from Lawrence Payne’s accomplishments, is as LinkedIn’s Chief Cheerleader and Encourager!

On any given day, you can find Lawrence reposting, commenting and encouraging others on their accomplishments. It’s that kind of generosity and kindness that has brought us together to have a conversation.
