So a few days into the poll and the FWJ community has made it clear: Keep the job list focused on jobs paying above $10. You speak, and I listen! However, I have spent some time lately speaking with the people who work for or run many of the content sites we consider low paying. A couple of them have been misrepresented in certain online “investigations.” Many of the low paying jobs are still what we consider legit, they just don’t pay a lot of money. So in order to give them fair representation (and by that I mean not handpicking emails from disgruntled writers to post here), I’m going to be bringing interviews from the folks behind many of these sites so we can learn who they are, how they’re run, what they really pay and why they’re different from all the others. Stay tuned for that.

I’m very excited about what’s coming up in the next few weeks at FWJ. We have a grant writing series going, a series on taxes (including for UK freelancers) beginning next week, an upcoming look on technical writing and more.  I think (I hope) you’ll find it all helpful.

Thanks to all who are sending your success stories. I’m thrilled you’re finding good, lucrative opportunities at FWJ.

Lordy, it was chilly this morning. After spending the past week in Las Vegas, the frost on the pumpkin was a rude awakening. I’m not a cold weather person, but this time of the year is so pretty. Please excuse the brief kumbaya, but I’m feeling especially blessed today. It’s a beautiful day, the world outside my window is alive with color, I’m self sufficient, and I have an amazing support group.

I have a couple of announcements to make this morning and I feel so good about bringing them to you. The first is about me giving back, and the other is about a company giving back to their writers.

  • Between now and Thanksgiving, any time someone ReTweets a blog post from FWJ, I’ll donate a nickel to the Community Food Bank of New Jersey. I know it’s not a lot, but I’m willing to give up any profit I earn for the next month or so if it means one or two families will receive a hot meal.
  • Also, Demand Studios will soon be offering affordable healthcare to its writers. I’ve known about this for a little while and it was all I could do not to announce the news. I hope this will help some of you who have been concerned about finding affordable healthcare.

Here’s what’s going on arond the network:

Just a thought…if you’re not part of the solution you’re part of the problem. What are you going to do to make a difference?

Enjoy your day, I’m looking forward to mine. Leads…

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.

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?

Here are some posts you may have missed from around the Freelance Writing Jobs network.

Don’t forget, there’s now a new section for our international freelance writing friends. Speaking of international writers, many freelance writers from other countries wrote to me asking if there was some way to write for Demand Studios as they don’t accept non-American writers. 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.

Featured Gig:

GardenGuides.com is looking for freelance writers.
