An online freelance writer is someone who writes articles, eBooks, web content, newsletters, ezine, and anything else. They are paid to write up interesting, educational articles that capture their audience. They are paid to fill content on the web. All the writing that a freelance writer does is usually the buyers copyright forever. It is a very fun career if you like to write because you are always learning about new things.

The greatest part of it is the fact that you get to make your own hours and work from the comfort of your own home. It is great for stay at home mothers or handicapped people or people with very busy schedules. You write on your own time as long as you finish your projects on your due date. Depending on what you write, you could get paid about 500 dollars for an eBook, not bad.

Creative Writing Distance Learning

Distance learning like any form of learning only produces the results that go with the amount of effort that a student is prepared to put in!

I once took a creative writing distance learning course and found that it was as difficult if not more so than taking a normal approach to leaning as one really as to motive ones self to get the course finished and get it back to the correspondence school on time.

Another difficulty with the creative writing distance learning course that I took was that it seemed like there was always a quiz or other assignment that I had to work on, and those had to be completed on a certain time scale. While it is often assumed that creative writing distance learning is largely self-paced, I did not find them to be that way.

Now, my sister has taken a creative writing distance learning since she started college two years ago and loves it. I am not saying that they are bad or should not be utilized when necessary, but I would be prepared for some difficulties that usually are not addressed when such classes are offered.

 

Journaling for Future Generations

I love to read old letters that my grandparents either wrote or received. Although they’re both deceased, it interests me to see what was said years ago. It shows me how they faced the same type issues we face today, somewhat like the adage “The more things change the more they are the same.” But with age I realize how important those letters really are.

If I could only write notes to leave written instructions to my descendants, what would I say? What would I tell them that would be meaningful? After all, if the old adage is true, what can I say that will be new and reason to act? It’s probably a weak argument for not writing, but by journaling can we really tell future generations anything? If we could pass wisdom would they listen? Will they listen?

We didn’t.
