The way we think determines our thoughts, and our thoughts determine the language we use. Pay attention to how your friends and colleagues talk. You will find that many speak a language of exclusion, a language about “what is not,” instead of “what is,” or “what can be.”
This is because we have been […]
This is taking chances month at the b5media.com business channel. We’ve been challenged to do something slightly differently. Hence my call for guest bloggers the other day. (And you’re still welcome to submit one, or two, or… )
I’ve also changed the tag line - no, not the one under the logo on top (more about […]
Heather Johnson, over at bootstrapper.com has assembled a list she calls The Top 100 Freelancer Blogs. There are 16 blogs for freelance writers here, including The Golden Pencil and some other favorites, as well as some that are new to me.

When I think about how I learned to charge clients what I’m worth, I realize a major part of it was becoming comfortable talking about money. I mean really comfortable - with everyone.

Finally, I’ve worked my way through each of Top 10 Blog Posts for Writers (The Best From The Best in 2007!). And it’s ended on a high note for me.

I won’t pretend I’ve read them all, but […]
Since I couldn’t decide which of the Top 10 Writing Posts I like best, I’m working my way through all of them.
The Renegade Writer Blog has a nifty post on how to save money getting sample magazines. You know you need to read at least one issue before you submit an article. Check this blog […]
I don’t think I can pick the best of the top 10 posts about freelance writing! Take Deb Ng’s, for example: Freelance Writing: Not Everyone Can Do It.
Oh how true. And having writing skill is only part of the formula. Deb knows her stuff.
Of her list, I think I resonate most with: You have to […]
How do you sum up a year for a blog that’s aimed at others. You know, all you freelance writers, editors, etc. out there. What was significant for you?
For me it was my significantly increased income, the deepening of my spiritual practice, the start of a new spin on my writing business and my fear […]
For the second year, The Golden Pencil was named one of the Top 10 Blogs for Writers at Michael Stelzner’s Writing White Papers blog.
