I wrote for TB for about 3 months before receiving a DO - and then it was from a client for whom I wrote one of my first submissions. Now they're a regular with 8-10 DOs per month. If you aren't already doing so, when you've particularly enjoyed writing a specific order, send the client a brief message expressing interest in DOs. Other than that, just be patient. As for the 5 rating, look back through the comments above, particularly those posted by Grandma. .-= Crystal´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.thebest50years.com/2010/03/refocusing-my-freelance-writing-efforts.html" rel="nofollow">Refocusing My Freelance Writing Efforts</a> =-.

I've always gotten a "4" rating and good comments from clients, but I haven't once gotten a direct order. Anything I may be doing wrong? Maybe my articles are good as far as grammar, but not compelling enough for a DO? Also, has anyone reached the "5" rating yet? (It's my personal goal to be a 5...even if it is just for a day!)

I could not help but notice that one of your websites is visithudsonvalley.com. I am from Beacon. Lived there from 1968 through 2000. Moved to Northwest Ohio in April of 2000. I grew up at the foot of Mt. Beacon in the development then called Mt. Beacon Park. I miss the mountains and the river. Sure loved the Strawberry Festival every year! Hi Felicia,

I am writing an art on "taking bass guitar lessons." I accepted the art, then contacted the client asking if it was suppossed to be for lessons online with DVD's or face to face? He replied that it was indeed online lessons, but I am unsure on how to proceed. I know I should just write on the benefits of learning Bass online, but should I mention DVD's or leave that out? Some online lessons are free and some are not..I should not mention price or how they learn online, right? Yes, I know I'm making this more difficult than it has to be. Thx in advance all!

Yes, I know I’m making this more difficult than it has to be.

I know I am doing a lot of duplicate work on my end, but I only have about 88 art's at this point, so right now it's easy to keep up my spreadsheet. I've always been accused of having too many lists and logs, and now you've given me an excuse to just make another one :-) Crystal,
