Freelance Writing Jobs for Friday, November 20, 2009

Ah. Friday. Some weeks it seems like it’ll never get here. It’s going to be an interesting weekend and week because of the impending holiday. I like to reflect during this time about the things I’m thankful for, but also for the things I’d like to be thankful for. For example, if I had my druthers, this blog network would be my 24/7 sole source of income. We’re close but not quite there yet. What are some of the things you hope you’re thankful for next year?

Some members of this community mentioned the front page doesn’t always update and they miss the leads. That’s my fault, actually. There’s a glitch so I have to update the homepage manually. However, I forget a lot. At the top of each page there are colored tabs leading to all the different blogs in this network. Click on them to be taken to each individual blogs homepage for updates. Thanks for your understanding while I work it all out.

• Disaster Recovery for Freelance Writers: Getting Prepared

Freelance Writing Jobs for Tuesday, November 17, 2009

How is everyone doing as we get closer to the holidays? I realized today Thanksgiving is next week! I haven’t done anything to prepare. After that, it’s just another month until Christmas, and I have done a single thing for that, either. I think I’m in denial. For me, the hardest part will be cutting back on the amount of work I do each day so I can shop and bake. I have so many projects happening now that I’m sure I’ll be working late in to the night between now and January 1st.

Things are going to start to slow down for the holidays. Will you be slowing down as well, or will you be taking advantage of the opportunities left behind by freelancers who are preparing for the holidays?

Articles Needed for a New Faith-Based Magazine – $10/Article

Articles are needed for a new faith-based magazine. The list of categories is below:

o Food

o Lifestyle

o Business

o Inspiring stories

o How-To articles

o Biblo-stories (articles written with biblical scriptures embedded in them, in order to cause readers to re-examine their lifestyle and/or accept the Good News and enter into a relationship with God)

o Light-hearted funny stories

o Journalistic article (an exploration of a topic/story from anywhere in the world that has captured the hearts of news readers)

o Ethical articles

o Love/Relationship/Marriage

The topic for your article does not have to be limited to those listed above nor does it have to have biblical scriptures. Above all, we are looking for articles that will capture the interest of our readers regardless of their faith. If there is an article that you would like to submit that does not fall into any of the above categories and you are unsure of our interest in the topic of your article, then we encourage you to send a query which states the specific description and outline of your article.

The word count is 350 – 800 and the minimum pay is $10 for the articles.

Contact: dream.michael@ymail.com

Writer for HowToSaveElectricity.net – $15 per article

HowToSaveElectricity.net is in the process of a complete redesign and launch. You can see the new site as it is being built at http://testsite.howtosaveelectricity.net We need 3 – 5 writers that can help us create 100s of interesting and quality articles to add to the site over the next 3 months.

*Qualifications: YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE A PROFESSIONAL WRITER OR HAVE YEARS OF EXPERIENCE. We are looking for individuals that can create interesting and thought provoking content that is grammatically correct around the topics of energy saving tips for the homeowner, alternative fuel cars, energy efficient appliances, LED light bulbs, CFL bulbs, and any other topic that has to do with alternative energy and/or energy conservation. If this is you, then we have work for you.

*Article Requirements: Each week we will deliver a list of keywords that have to do with our topic. Your job will be to use at least one of those keywords in the title of your article and then create a minimum of 500 words of good quality content. The article must be your own work! We will not tolerate content that is copied from other sites or rewritten with automated tools.

Most of these articles will require minimum research. The good news is any research you do can be used for multiple articles. For instance if you spent 30 minutes researching CFL bulbs, you could spin that research into multiple articles such as “Comparing CFL Bulbs To Traditional Bulbs”, “What are the Different Types of CFL Bulbs Available” , “Saving Money with CFL Bulbs”, and “How To Pick the Best CFL Bulb”.

*Compensation: The pay is $15 per article. Once your articles are submitted, we will take a maximum of 3 business days to review them, mail you a check, and send you a list of more article ideas.

*Still Interested?: If this is something you are interested in, simply download our writers agreement from the link below. You’ll need to sign this and return it to the email address below. This agreement is to protect you and us as it clearly outlines the terms under which we are working together. You will also need to submit a single article that you have written around the topic of energy saving tips for the homeowner, alternative fuel cars, energy efficient appliances, LED light bulbs, CFL bulbs or any other alternative energy topic. You can optionally include any background information about yourself if you like.

We will be picking 3 – 5 writers out of the submissions in the coming weeks.
