Come and follow my Blog

Freelance writing can have so many ups and downs. Call me a cynic, but with my writing up this month I am afraid of the other shoe to drop. I am truly enjoying Helium as a freelance writing site. For those of you looking for a place to start and get your feet wet, this is a wonderful place to start. The money takes awhile to kick in, but it does.

I have had two freelance writing gigs for local magazines. This has been fantastic. I would like to continue to do both and have success. Hopefully things will keep going well and success will keep coming my way. After all it can happen!

Working on my Blog has been my biggest challenge. Many writers have some fantastic Blogs. Both writing and layouts. So hang with me while I change it up a little bit and discover more of how to be successful! Also feel free to check out my articles on the right hand side.

Writing Success

I am hitting a mental block again for writing. It is a frustrating path I am embarking on. Trying to become somewhat successful at writing articles that are pithy or meaningful. I find myself at a stopping point.

My friends who are writers have blogs with hundreds of people following them. Their posts are funny and engaging. I need to get over that hurdle. I am having some success with my online gig. If you are visiting my blog, take a look at the links of stories next to my posts. The more clicks, the more known I become. That is the thought I hope!

I hope my assignments keep coming in and this block will soon go away. It is a double edge sword. You can't get paid of you don't write and with my block I can't get paid. Being a freelancer well....what am I getting myself into?
