Sharon's Journal/Blog (Book) http://www.Writing.Com/main/books.php/item_id/1267252-Sharons-JournalBlog I'm sorry for not contributing to my blog lately, but I went back to work and it's been hectic. By the time I make the commute home, it's usually 8:00 p.m. and my mind is dead. But, at least I am working, for which I am thankful. I was starting to worry that I would never find a job, but I did and I love it.

But, I've been busy writing articles and actually getting paid for them. I'll admit the money is never going to make me rich, but it's exciting to see my name in print. When I sold my first article, the editor liked my writing and request...[Read Full Post] Sat, 01 Mar 2008 15:56:46 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/570921 I've received some really great news! I have been offered a job as copy editor for a publisher who accepted one of my articles on Helium. He liked my writing and asked if I would be interested in editing the articles for his magazine. I hope to be starting that in mid-October. A couple of my articles have been published and I intend to write many...[Read Full Post] Mon, 08 Oct 2007 13:37:08 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/540390 The following is my review of the trial version I downloaded of Writer's Blocks writing software. I found it difficult to work with. Their concept is to use blocks for each thought and then you can arrange the blocks in the order you want them and transfer them to your manuscript page. The problem I had was that the blocks became too cumbersome and m...[Read Full Post] Thu, 13 Sep 2007 21:45:44 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/534992 I've been remiss in adding blog entries, but not because things haven't been happening. Just when I thought that it was time for me to to go back to work, I sold two articles to two online magazines. When I moved to Washington from Austin, Texas in January, I left a very lucrative job at a law firm. I loved the people I worked with and hated ...[Read Full Post] Thu, 13 Sep 2007 02:58:10 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/534862 Monday, August 13, 2007 I have been so remiss in adding blog entries, but I've been busy writing articles for Helium Marketplace. What a great way to make some extra money! It's much easier than writing articles at www.constant-content.com. A couple months ago, I had read in someone's blog about constant-content so I visited their site ...[Read Full Post] Thu, 16 Aug 2007 15:20:28 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/527858 Friday, May 25, 2007 Last night, I accessed a link for EasyWritingBiz.com while I was on WDC (probably an affiliate link). I ordered the download and read the entire 125 page manual. If the spacing and large type had been normal, the manual would have been half the size. It was informative as to sites to go to for freelance work, what the going rates ...[Read Full Post] Thu, 31 May 2007 02:38:37 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/512012 Friday, May 30, 2007 Reading a newsletter today regarding self-publishing reminded me of a something that happened last year. I received an e-mail from someone who claimed to be a great author and just came out with his recent "best seller," a gripping mystery. He was giving me the opportunity to purchase it at a discounted price before it cam...[Read Full Post] Thu, 31 May 2007 02:36:45 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/512011
