While you are checking out courses and deciding, start a swipe file.

Subscribe to newsletters and mailing lists, and bookmark sites whose copy you like. (Evernote and ReadItLater makes this easy.)

After you have a bunch of items in your swipe file, take the ones you like best and re-write them. And re-write them by hand with pen and paper.

Your brain will also start to learn techniques and phrases.

And hopefully you will also start seeing common structures in how the copy flows - the journey good copy takes a reader on.

I also recommend AdWeek's book on copywriting. Still in print.
