Sunday, March 27, 2005Writing my way to a better future...Here it is, Easter Sunday and I'm sitting at my computer, writing away. Apparently you are too, or you wouldn't be reading this... well, unless of course it isn't Easter anymore! I have so much on my list of things to do, and I decided I was going to try that "15 minutes" thing and see how that pans...

Not sure if I told you guys this or not, but each month (starting this January) I have been keeping a list of my freelance articles that are due and when they've been submitted and when I've been paid, how much, etc. Well, as for March, if I do...

But that is ONLY if I am offered the position, and ONLY if it is a sizeable increase from what I am making now... ESPECIALLY because the new job would be nearly twice as far from...

A writing to-do list, which makes it all the better! The problem is that I have deadlines for some articles, and others fall into the category of "whenever you have time" or "sometime this month". I have three articles that are absolutely... Sign in to see full entry.Monday, March 7, 2005Ahhh, glorious payday!I wish days like today would come more often! I got home from work a bit later than I had wanted, but it was all right because I had a (very late) Christmas card waiting for me, as well as three checks from various freelance jobs I've done in recent weeks and months. Now this money will not be... Sign in to see full entry.Sunday, March 6, 2005Well, the interview went well...I was offered a second interview, and that will take place this Thursday. The driving distance really is too much, so I will be forced to either rent or buy something somehow... But I am far too stubborn to rent, so who knows what kind of small hole in the wall I will be able to purchase. Hope you...

And the events of tomorrow are the elements that could tip the scale.... Tomorrow I have a job interview for a position as a technical writer. I did not tell many people about this...

Not to say they will even offer it to me, but if they do, a lot of things in my life will change. Hopefully for the better! I have been itching to get out of my current...

Venture into new and unchartered waters, of course! I've been doing some beauty and romance writing, keeping things rolling at my newspaper job and working my personal finance articles out...

What qualities do you possess, that some others do not, that makes you a "writer"? First of all, one must *WANT* to write! Secondly, one must *BELIEVE* in what he or she is trying to accomplish.
