Freelance Writing Jobs for September 11, 2009

9/11 was one of the deciding factors in my leaving my full time job to become a freelance writer. Soon after witnessing the attacks on the World Trade Center, my husband and I learned we were pregnant. We didn’t think we wanted to raise our child in New York City. After 9/11 and 30 years of living there, I knew I had enough of the city and all the negativity that surrounds it. While I probably would have made the decision to leave my job eventually, 9/11 cinched things for us. Some people see today as anniversary. I see it as a disturbing but important memory, one that led to so many levels of change for so many people.

Here’s to positive change for all of us.

Freelance Writing Jobs for September 10, 2009

Isn’t it funny how the seasons affect the mood? I find myself at my best during spring and summer but once autumn kicks in I’m not as buoyant. I don’t get the winter blues or anything like that, but I do mourn the lack of warmth and long, sunny days. I woke up this morning and it was dark out. The wind was blowing and there’s inclement weather in the forecast. I’d much rather be typing this while sitting in my sunny office with the windows open. Instead, the drapes are drawn and the wind is my soundtrack. It makes such a difference, doesn’t it?

I’m happy to report this is something they’re working on and they hope to have a plan in place in another month or two.

Freelance Writing Jobs for August 20, 2009

After spending several days and nights away on an unplanned trip, I’m appreciating the importance of planning ahead. Though I was able to get some work done while I was away, the truth is, I have a lot to catch up on and it will take days to do it. For instance, Last night I spent three hours alone answering advertising inquiries. This morning, I woke up early and didn’t even put a dent in my email even after working on it for two hours. Articles were sent back to the queue at Demand Studios, writers are inquiring, blogs are sitting for a week without any updating and I have to respond to several potential clients. Normally when I go away, I plan at least a month in advance by writing posts and articles ahead of time, reaching out to clients and editors and making sure I covered all my bases. I didn’t have time for all of that this time. While nothing terrible happened, it can be overwhelming to return home to an inbox of 3,027.

What do you do before going away to ensure you’re not too far behind when you return?

Freelance Writing Jobs for July 8, 2009

I’m happy to report the feeds have been fixed. Thanks to all who brought it to my attention. I had no idea! You should be able to subscribe via email or your favorite feed reader now with no problem.  Some folks who responded to our survey requested a way to combine all our feeds into one for more convenient feed reading. I’ll see what I can do…

Some survey comments are also stating they would like to see more “non-Craigslist” writing ads. I would love to accommodate. However, Craigslist does list the most freelance writing jobs each day – and I try to find the non-scammy, spammy ones, and I also comb several other job boards and sites for leads as well. They just don’t have good stuff every day. Craigslist does get a bum rap for being a haven for spammers and that’s true. It’s also still one of the best places to find lucrative writing opportunities and I wouldn’t be so quick to write off jobs just because they come from Craigslist. Thanks to those of you who already took our survey. It really lets us know how you use FWJ and what we can do to improve. If you haven’t already told us how you feel, you can find the survey here. Thanks so much for your help!

I posted some guidelines today. Note that these are not jobs. These are markets to query. Please follow all the directions in the writers guidelines as some editors are real sticklers. A nice list today. Also, for those of you who are asking, FitzDrake Research is Examiner.com. Since they’re being flagged for spamming Craigslist, they’re not using “Examiner” in the job description. Ok. I’m done talking.
