Blogging 2008 ~ from a sunflower in Texas
Writing tips, topics, ideas, and examples. |
From time to time I've been able to locate a freelance assignment that pays a little, and I think I've stumbled on to a good assignment through Writerlance.com. I'm going to be writing for a fellow named Adrian, and his web site is I know my biggest problem is generating a time schedule, and being able to create an article in a given amount of time. I know I over-research, but it gives me a feeling of security to know I've at least scanned most of the info out there on the web. Then I use my notes to write a hand written draft. I like to be able to cross out, draw arrows, and look at the changes I've made before I go to Word to type my article up. All those steps are time consuming. My first two or three articles are researched, and I'm about to start typing the first article to send to Adrian. I told him I'd have it Monday, but I've had several life complications. The biggest hold up has been electricity flickering out because of thunderstorms. I lost my work, more than once. However, the sun is shining now, so I'm going to get my fingers to the grindstone. If this job works out, I may be supplying articles on health and fitness for awhile. I'm excited about that. I have a topic that's interesting, and researching will gain me some valuable knowledge. Wish me luck |
