Freelance Writing/Teaching Opportunity

I was supposed to be writing an article and I started wandering around the internet. Unlike working in an office where I would wander to one of my friend’s cubicle, I sat right at my laptop and found myself wandering to the other side of the world. Universal Class During my daily wandering, I found [...]

eHow is Cutting Down on SPAM

Apparently eHow is clamping down on folks who are looking to get rich quick with eHow articles. Personally, I’m happy that they’re monitoring the articles placed there. I’ve been writing form them for a couple of months now and have been pretty happy with the experience. I’ve got to admit, when I first started, I [...]

What Not to Do When Creating a Website

Kid in a Candy Shop

My laptop is back.  I feel like a kid in a candy shop or a dog in a trash can or a Mom with some “Me time.”  You get my drift.  I’m whole again! I guess I kind of knew that I would be lost without my laptop, but I didn’t realize just how lost [...]

Unexpected Blog Break

The backlight on my laptop stopped working and so did I. I’m making this post from my husband’s computer (ugh). It works well enough, but once you get used to working on your own system with your own software adjusted to your own settings, it’s a bit annoying working on someone else’s system. I tried [...]

Unsolicited Writing Opporunity

Here’s an unsolicited writing opportunity that ended up in my inbox. While it’s not something that I’m interested in at this time, it sounded pretty interesting so I wanted to share it: Heritage Web Solutions, located in Provo, Utah, is currently listed in the top 1% of hosting companies in the nation.

A Textbroker Update

It appears that Textbroker no longer hires writers that are not located in the US. Below is an email I received from them today. If you have already signed up for Textbroker, you probably received the same email. However, folks who were considering writing for them should be aware of the following: Hello Felicia, Based [...]

Time to Make a Few More Changes

Today.com has instituted a uniform blog template across all of their blogs. I guess it makes sense. If I’m going to continue writing for Today.com, I’ll have to adapt to the new look. The question is…do I want to continue writing for them. I’ve recently decided that I want to double my online income in [...]

The Suite Smell of Success

I’ve been writing for Suite 101 since April of 2007. I’ve added new articles on a very slow and sometimes steady pace. I barely go above the minimum requirement of 10 articles every three months (14 articles now that I’m a Feature Writer). I added 5 new articles in January, 5 in December and 6 [...]
