Freelance Writing Jobs for September 30, 2009

It’s the last day of the month so I imagine many of you are fulfilling all your end of the month quotas and obligations. After being away for much of the last week I thought I might stay up late working last night. I changed my mind and decided to unplug early – before dinner, even. No regrets. I may be up until 3:00 a.m. tonight but the family time and relaxation was so worth it. I even slept through my alarm this morning,  but I don’t recommend that.

When was the last time you blew off work and unplugged? I never recommend being a flake, but don’t forget to take time for you.

Freelance Writing Jobs for May 5, 2009

My biggest challenge as a blogger is proofreading. Because I have so many things going on at once, I tend to post and run – without checking my work. It’s not until I start receiving negative comments here (and on other blogs) and nasty emails that I realize I did it again. Even though I turn in my clients’ work after reading it over several times, it’s still a good reminder for me to be careful what I post to my blogs, even if they are more personal. For instance, if I want to use FWJ as a reference for other projects, what example am I setting by having typos in my writing?

What are some of the things you need to work harder at as a freelance writer or blogger?
