Peek-A-Boo, I’m back (for now)

I woke up this morning to find that my site was nowhere to be found. Imagine my shock when I typed in my URL and found a blank white page. I’ve got to say, a white page is a nice place to start, but since I’ve been blogging here for a couple of years, a [...]

Digging Out of the Snow

I’m back…finally. I’ve had enough of this indoor camping stuff and I’m glad to be back online. Actually, it really wasn’t that bad. We have a couple of generators so we had lights and I was able to run the portable heaters (I bought the heaters a little while ago when I thought I had [...]

Snowed Under

Just a quick post to say that I’ve been in the dark ages for the past couple of days and I’m not sure when my power/internet access will return.  I managed to find a spot on the floor in the corner of my local Barnes and Noble to gain access to the internet. Everyone is [...]

Taking a Page from Tiger Woods’ Book

Tiger’s apology made me take a look at my freelance writing career. Let me see if I can explain where I’m coming from. Tiger reached the pinnacle of the golfing profession. I’m no golfer and learned more than I cared to learn as a result of being surrounded by men who love to golf and [...]

How Freelance Writing Classifieds Have Changed

I remember just a couple of short years ago when I began writing online, I would search the online job boards for writing assignments. I remember I landed my first “big gig” through one of these sites. If was for a trade magazine and it paid me $525 for a 1,200 word article. Wow, I [...]

Where’s the Meat?

On two occasions I’ve used writing services to write articles for me. As part of my delegatory skills, I needed to outsource (I realize that I cannot do it all…no matter what they say on TV). The first time I used online writing services, about 6 or 8 months ago, I found the articles to [...]

A Wonderful Freelance Writing Resource

Well, it’s the day after Thanksgiving and I’m a bit stuffed. I tried not to eat too much, but not eating too much on Thanksgiving is like putting me on a computer and telling me not to check my Google AdSense earnings. It just can’t be done. Anyway, not feeling like doing much writing today, [...]
