Writer, editor and web mistress Julia Temlyn has created a lovely site aimed at reminding writers why they started writing in the first place. It’s called Writers Remember. She recognizes we often sell at least part of our souls as we write what others want us to write – mostly in order to get paid. […]

One of my projects involves getting updates from an OfficeLive site. The goal is a worthy one. As the team members update documents I need for the project, I’m, at least in theory, able to access them without going through the drama of mailing multiple attachments. I love the idea – it’s the implementation that […]

I just posted 41 new freelance writing jobs - go get ‘em.
Another category of job that bothers me is the low pay gig with the promise of more to come later. Sure, there are legitimate start-ups, but my sense of many of these low pay freelance writing jobs is that they are posted by dreamers […]

FundsForWriters.com grew out of a newsletter site creator C. Hope Clark started when she tired of answering the same questions about writing, and most particularly grants for freelance writers over and over again. And for years, the newsletter was all there was.
Now it’s also a website packed with solid information for freelancers. The emphasis is […]

I just spent some time trying to find good blogs about writing and the freelance writing business… got thoroughly blogged down!
Then the light dawned… I’ve got this terrific group of readers and if each one of them commented with their favorite writing blog we could come up with a dynamite directory… so comment away. […]

Sometimes I think the world is divided into two types of folks… those who, like me, love the big picture and those who are good with a ton of small details. It’s the latter that make good copy editors.
I’ve recently been reminded how important detail people are. As I headed up the effort to stage […]

I’ve started another blog, called Dollars and Debt – obviously not about writing, but it is about earning and under earning and getting out of vagueness about money. I know I’m not the only freelance writer who has had a problem with these issues from time-to-time.
How do I know? At the request of my […]

What is reality to Americans today? And did we ever have a grasp of it?
That’s the title of Vanity Fair’s essay contest. What a great pair of questions for an essay contest. There was a time when I thought “reality” was a solid, identifiable thing. Now I know it’s more like beauty, in the […]
