sorry sorry sorry!!!

sorry I have not made one entry worth reading. Going through a funny patch. The wrting on eco house building and everything green, is going well, but the subject does not grab me. I can real out a lot of stuff about how to made the soil nice, but it's not me! Had a long think, and tried it out with G, and I'm sure I can make money writing on the only subject I know anything about: The Occult. With lots of old Predictions laying around, I'm sure I could adapt my own style to writing occult... Sign in to see full entry.

Just stick it till Christmas

When I was stuck in the factory I looked forward to Christmas, as a time when I could escape. "Just stick it till Christmas!" That’s about all Christmas means to me really. Kids can be so selfish and materialistic, that you have long forgotten what they hell its all about. Those Hollywood images of tramping through the snow, for a Christmas holiday, sure as hell down pan out round here. Many of the trees still have their leaves on them. I would not be so romantic if we were stuck in six foot... Sign in to see full entry.

Agencies for Writers

Agencies for Writers Looking on Google, I found several sites that act as agencies for writers. You put in your CV and portfolio, they hope for the best. This did not exist a few years ago. I wonder if these CV’s are real? Or the portfolios? Still the best of luck. Thinking pat to Pat quinn and the old copywriting days, he always said, give the first ones away free. then if you are any good, you have put the hook inthem. So I will have to make up a load of stuff about the building game and Green... Sign in to see full entry.

Making money!

One thing had shot out at me over the years, concerning writing on the net. They love any article about making money.Entraprenures of any sort are welcomed, and they love the idea of people making money from nothing. When I first started, I was bewitched by the get rich quick sites. It seemed all you had to do was bullshit people into thinking money was just going to flow through your door, and in it would come. I have never met anyone who has actually made any money like this. Or heard of... Sign in to see full entry.

building?

have tried to think of a subject I know something about that I could make money writing articles about. Building is a possible. We got a load of magazines on self homebuilding last year, and although a threw them away, they put the hook in me. What if I re-wrote their articles and sold them back to other magazines? After all is this not what writers are doing anyway? It's a farely easy subject to pick up on, and the most popular sunject in the country at the moment. Going back to my old days in...

Auntie BBc

Thnaks anyone who read the BBC article. Wished I had done more too it now. If like me you are struggling writer, there are certain sites which can do you a lot of good. the worsed part of any project is getting it published. Today that mean reveiwers. Getting a good review is all important. think about it. The publisher will not take achance on anything new, as no one has heard of you, and he can't get his moneyb back. But the reviewer cannot make any money from your work, or lose any! So he had... Sign in to see full entry.

BBC?

Anyone ever visited the BBC Get Writing pages? Wonder if it's worth trying? Thinking back to the days when I used to try and submit stories to radio 4 morning story, they did have a habbit of attracting publishers. For the wrong reasons as it turned out. As they only published their mates. But worth an idea. Steve Sign in to see full entry.
