Lessons of writing

I am more and more convinced that without a good writing you cannot survive on the freelance writing market. As a non-English speaker, I continue my personal struggle with unhappy editors and unexpectedly glowing reviews from very happy customers. 

This article made me laugh at a certain extent, because it reminded me of my daily struggle to get a lot of work and get paid while I am still trying to improve my English at a native level. When you do not have any choice but to use your brain for getting money, you automatically throw yourself into a sea of desperation and waves of hope. On the other hand, I feel strong enough to hope that maybe within 12 months time I will be also able to write at a coherent level in another two languages - German being one of them - that will allow me to increase my chances of profit and the hopes to settle down financially. 

I wish myself a lot of good grammarly correct luck!

Google Voice for writers

In many respects, Skype failed to turn into the must-have for businesses, being rather used mostly for person-on-person communications/or, in some cases, for a lot of spams of various kinds. Now, Google is challenging a bit the market with Google Voice in a very multifunctional way (the demo is a very good mix between description and creativity). In fact, I am more and more convinced that practical insights and creative thinking are more and more indispensable for our professional success, either we are exclusively business-oriented or with a humanist/not necessarily for profit profile. Starting and restarting again, some of the main treats of our world.

Writing tips

The article is offering useful orientation to any kind of writing style.
From my own experience as well, I must confess that I took the risk to skip many of the "etiquette" details regarding, for example, the format, a certain logic of arranging the paragraphs. And lost.
As I must recognize, writing is not enough!

Writing for businesses

could be more than a monotonous boring show-up of words. Good to know, good to think about this. And, I faced this situation in many cases as needed to convince my clients that trying to have open messages and interesting messages do not diminish at all the level of seriosity and the sober image of the company. Sometimes I won, sometimes not.
