I know it seems like I never have time to catch up on here anymore what with being away and all and I came back to a great opportunity to do some travel writing for a client.
I have 10 articles due by next Monday so right now I have my nose to the grindstone. I have two due tomorrow so I am working on the right now but I hope to be able to get some time tonight to visit with everyone.
Thank you for being such good friends and I miss you all. But the lure of some greenbacks has gotten my attention at the moment.

Hi @BelleStarr! I am pleased to know a writer like you. How long have you been writing? Do you also have a blog of your own where you can write your personal travel experiences?

@BelleStarr Wow! You are already an expert then. How often do you travel? What age did you start to travel?

@annierose I have been traveling all of my life, I went to Canada at age 4. I travel several times a year, probably 6 times.

No problem and that is great news to have a writing client! It does get a little hairy when there's a few articles pending like that-you'll do well though as you're a pro!

@BelleStarr That's so funny- I was just talking in a Private Message to Michelle from akk those sites as I write now Beauty, Style and Entertainment News type articles for the Daily Voice News- I was asking if a place that Dani also worked was good to write for as I finished re-writing for a client and am looking for somehing that pays. What was the name again? Oh, I think you sent a message!

@BelleStarr
The problem is competition out there, l have outsourced top quality content for $5 just as l have outsourced poor quality for $20.
The problem is you dont take it, there are 100s maybe 1000s out there waiting to take it.
Once ordered 20 articles,the lady was so happy,offered to work for me outside freelance for $3 so as to keep me as a client.
I was too embarrassed to pay so cheap,l felt it will be unfair to her so l said no

@BelleStarr You'll get them done and with that will come a sense of satisfaction. Finishing projects always does that for me, even little projects.
