When The Freelancing Jobs and Dollars Goes on a Long Vacation

In this freelance writing business, the two of freelance writing jobs and freelancing dollars are a couple. The issue now is that both have gone on vacation.

And sometimes, unnecessary persistence.

Five Mathematical Equations of Your Online Writing Career and Their Answers

As 2016 writers, if we must embrace reality, a lot has changed. Trust me -- those writers who launched their writing career some eight years ago, who were almost immediately successful, may find it difficult replicating the same feat should they have to start all over again in 2016. This is the Gospel truth. You may want to put up some arguments but I think it is just unnecessary.

6 Ideas and Motivation Sources for Writers

While some writers would claim they have never lacked for ideas to write and that they can write on virtually any subject at any given time, on the contrary, there is another group of writers who are stuck in the writer's block. So many times they are just helpless and seem not to be able to wrap their head around ideas that can, in turn, be used to craft beautiful pieces. For this category of people, I will urge them to take the pain to read this article to its last word. I promise to be as brief as I possibly could.

6 Ways to Writing Consistently While Never Seeing Writing as a chore

If there was a degree-awarding institution for soothsaying, I had dropped out with no certificate at all. Or if I was compelled to continue, I had graduated a huge failure. This simply is letting you know that I don’t flatter with my words; I only give out tidbits I think will be helpful for writers. And today, I will freely be giving out some more of those tips to the groups who have now likened writing to chores as in the clothes they wash daily or the food they cook or eat daily.

How to run a Starting Writing Career on a Low Budget

As with a writer from a developing country, I can relate to some issues that starting writers usually grapple with (at least for a start) and of which How to run a Starting Writing Career is one. But let it be known to someone that I am proving no point here neither am insinuating a thing -- just what some honest individuals from this part of the world will attest to.

Yes writing/writers have got secret and it is...

A female writer on one of Nigeria’s leading online forum shared how much she earns freelancing. Actually, it is nothing less of $1000/month. You’ll not believe that this single post is running into 160 pages with comments. As if this was not enough, she went ahead to again post the car she bought from being a freelancer. However, she was clever to have been explicit about her motives christening it ‘motivation for young writers’. We can only believe her.

Every other Careers may require Mentoring for a Start, Writing does not

Of course, you read it true from the topic of the post "writing does not require mentoring for a start". For this write-up, I intend to make it as brief as it should be so as to allow you space to launch your writing career should you haven’t in spite reading my first three posts. I care about you and your writing career, that’s why I believe this very post should be crafted exclusively for you.

Here is The CHEAPEST of all Things That You can Start with as a Writer

In the beautiful world of writing, you got either of these ‘fuls’ defining you: a “wishful writer” or a “successful writer”. But for whatever reason, let’s assume successful writers never existed. Or does anyone have fine scissors, so we could just neatly cut out that which is being known as a successful writer? And now to the wishful writer our last “man” standing (apology to our lady writers; I only meant human being in that context so all hands should be off my jugular. Lol).

All Writers Have Got Their Own Story; this is Mine

Like every other writer, I too have my story. Permit me to romance the name of my high school but that is where it all actually started. It happened that my school will be hosting another school in an interschool essay competition (I never knew about this until a few hours to when the competition will be taking place in proper – and about the same time was I informed that I’ll be one of the three contestants representing my school). There’s actually a story as to how this is but I’ll spare you for now. The essay competition was held and the visiting school won.

Kick Start your Writing Career with These Tips that Work for would-be Writers

 I think the issue here is quite different from the discourse writer’s block when a writer gets stuck; It is that of a desiring writer who just couldn’t have a start beyond the desire or dream level. More precisely, he got a BIG issue starting out. The Bigger issue is that not much discourse has addressed this. But you got me addressing it today. 
My first post on this blog was actually how I started off my writing career and how I have been able to sustain it till date. You see, I am no pro at either of writing or blogging; I just felt I have gathered some knowledge and some experiences that can be helpful if shared, and this is exactly why I am here for you today.
 I do think sharing my own story without giving you hope to share yours is just sheer selfishness. Or maybe I was just throwing myself around for attention. But neither of these do I wished to be known or associated with, instead, I want to be associated with you. I want to be associated with your beginning. And most importantly, I want to be part of your story of building a successful writing career.
Without further ado, would-be writers have got some issues starting out that have been adequately recognized -- no need having to spell them out again. But will any fresh writer find any of the below helpful?
#1. Self-assess. But before you start writing, just a question: who are you? It is no crime to desire to be a writer, but are you truly sincere about it? For me prior to my becoming a writer I have always seen myself as one. It was truly who I wanted to be. I got inclined to write because it was my thing and not just because someone close by or far away was into it or profiting from it. I only searched around for mentoring and self-development in the act of writing just after I had made that decision to be a writer. Everybody cannot be a writer is what I am implying.
And then you think you have passion? Are you passionate about writing? How much passion have you? To tell you there are several times that I quitted writing -- or those times of several sabbaticals -- but it as it may, I am always returning to the root. To let you know, some of this so-called sabbatical lasted well over six months. So if it wasn’t enough passion, what is? If it isn’t, how possible you’re reading from me now?
#2. No comparison. Just get writing and be good at what you do. No competition -- for you’ll get your butt outside writing faster than you got yourself into it should whoever become your standard. To be truthful, they’ll always appear to be getting it right more than you. And soon you’ll be out of writing with as many reasons as you got already. Those reasons could only be therapeutic you know. But where will be your golden dream of becoming a successful writer?
#3. Start writing now. It’s no denying that a writer should have some essentials. Like, for instance, for most submissions of essays, Client’s work (as in freelancing), it usually requires that the piece is submitted in a .doc format. You don’t have a laptop upon which can be found the Microsoft. Worst yet no internet connection. And seeing you don’t have any of these isn’t it only natural that I compromise? Yet still, write anyway. God’s willing I should be having a post on how to run a start-up writing career on a low budget soon so be sure you’re always checking back.  
#4. Start with the ones you love. You know, just writing lyrics might be cool with you – continue writing it. I have come to discover that poem and lyrics could be best of friends. And I want to let you know that from some punch of lyrical writings you might soon find yourself writing the finest of poems.
Now look at it that you are not cut out to follow an idea to a logical conclusion starting out a career with an essay or some sort… with my little understanding of this form of writing, you got to argue your point as strongly but coherently as you can. 
Or for a freelance writer starting a career with e-Books writing just because it seems to attract more pay. You might have done some researches on Bings, Google, but it wouldn’t be a start that I’ll recommend.

#5. Worry little about 100%. Any writer in spite the heavy proofreading may still be guilty of typos but no one is ever charged or if someone is charged, little charges though (just some typos beginners make that can be avoided the next time). 
But some other writers will not be spared for the most insignificant error contained in their write-ups: tenses, spellings, punctuations, wrong choice or incorrect use of words etc. But a wise writer will get over these errors with consistent writing and learning. 
 I’ll say 100% is a must for writers but only necessary for beginners and you are one so get writing already.
#6. Begin with familiar words and simple sentences. I have never been a sucker for high and convoluted grammar. I have upheld the belief that you can always communicate rather than just speaking or rapping. I’ve come to understand that the message is clearly understood when it is kept short and simple. Big grammar doesn’t equate you’re less communicating or that (s)he is better communicating (remember point 2).
#7. Help me, help yourself.  I’ve come to understand that it’s in you just like the advert of peak milk. But here I’ll like to say it’s up to you. You can always help me to get yourself motivated and stay motivated. You can always help yourself to start out and start now. You can always help yourself to start the actualization of your ultimate dream. You can as well help me tell yourself some truths (point 1 above).
