Mar 8th
Mardi Gras arrives and I’m wondering how many people know the significance?
Fat Tuesday is the day before Ash Wednesday, which itself marks the start of Lent and the 40 days you are supposed to give up something. Mardi Gras is the last party day you have available before the Lenten abstinence.
I’ve never been to New Orleans for Mardi Gras, though I have been in France where the festival is also celebrated many years ago.
Today is also notable because I detected Spring in the air this morning as I let the mutt out into the yard, that and when I opened my eyes it was already daylight, so I guess we are well on our way into warmer times.
WOOT!

Mar 7th
Nothing like barging into Monday with a couple of deadlines to get the adrenalin flowing. Fortunately, both met and the rest of the week now beckons with a perennial chore I do not baulk at – invoicing.
The whole point of being a professional writer is to get paid – I’m not Byron with nothing to declare but my genius – I have bills to pay, which is how I came to be a professional in the first instance.
Invoicing is the best part of the job because it shows your worth in very real terms as a writer (as in anything else too). I also find that how I invoice reflects on me professionally too – the very fact that I ‘invoice’ separates me from 90%+ of the competition. No matter how you arrange your financial affairs, make it a habit to establish an invoicing format and stick to it. Invoicing should be clear, include your full contact information and any specific instructions to the client for how to pay you – I always include a “Thank You” note at the end of the invoice, and you should note, that the vast bulk of my work is of a recurring nature i.e. my clients keep coming back for more.
I’ll talk about client service another time, but for now you’ll have to content yourself with finding some, so here is The Keybasher’s daily free freelance writing gig list.
Enjoy,

Mar 4th
Friday at last, though for me the weekend will be a working one as I have to play catch up after taking some time out of the office this week. My wife still has a ”honey do” list for to complete, but at least I can justify ducking out on some chores by claiming to be working.
My kids caught me staring into space one morning after breakfast and asked me what I was doing. Quick as a flash I said, “Thinking Time!” Is that work? “Yes it is darling, now let me work please.”
Sprog #1 disappeared to tell mom I was working and the retort from the kitchen was, “Reading the newspaper and daydreaming are not work – you’re just like your father!”
Dish washing duty for a week
Either way, it’s still Friday and no matter what you are up to this weekend it is hard to shake that Friday feeling

I currently work as a graphic designer. I would like someone to read and edit my stories, (picture books) to make sure they use grammar correctly and are understandable. I am working with someone to perhaps program them for iPads. My dream editor would be smart, fun, understand big concepts and like children. (Of course understand grammar–tenses and all that fun stuff. Just so you know–I went to a small rural school–I diagrammed sentences. I once asked a creative director to please write me a simple declarative sentence as a caption. He said–”I didn’t know artists knew what a declarative sentence was.” This one does. I plan to self publish and sell these at shows. If that makes you cringe–I understand. (9 of 10 books don’t make any money–I can do that well on my own–why get a publisher who is only right 10% of the time?) I can send you a pdf of a few stories–I usually do sketches along with the words–it helps me visualize. That way you can see what you are getting into. Be prepared to giggle. That is the plan. Hopefully this should be fun–and you should make some money–and highest goal–bring some really fun, intelligent, new stories to the world. (I don’t do banal stuff, the children nowadays are too smart for that.) Shoot me an e-mail and I’ll send you a pdf. I live in Des Moines.

Mar 3rd
We had a hiatus yesterday as I was away from the office dealing with “stuff” – we all have it unfortunately
Here we are with today’s free freelance writing job listing and I expect this listing to start growing as we commence pulling jobs from other sources aside from Craigslist.
Craigslist has been a good work resource for me over the years but you have to be choosy. There are a number of frauds and scams perpetrated online and writing gigs is ripe for taking the unwary.
A popular writing scam is to ask for a sample article on a the buyer’s given topic – this is reasonable but I personally don’t do it anymore. My reasoning is simple – I have a portfolio which more than adequately demonstrates my abilities. If a client is not impressed that my work has been published by the likes of Business Week or PCWorld, then no number of samples I produce is going to convince them to give me the assignment. In addition, if you are a scammer looking for free copy, simply advertize a job and then ask every writer who applies for a “sample” to your specification. With a dozen writers submitting “samples” you can get a lot of content without paying a dime and of course, after getting the work in you simply have to tell the bidding writers that they didn’t win the job, but hey, better luck next time when I have a project.
It doesn’t matter if you have been writing for a week or for years, setting up a portfolio is important and especially one where potential clients can see your work out there. If you are just starting, use your existing pieces as the starting point and if you have an extensive portfolio, get the work arranged so it is in one place (or at least have all the links to online published articles and work in one place so it is easy to get to them and to refer to them in your pitch).
This is one reason why Keybasher.com is offering a $249 website package – that is website set-up, domain name registered and hosting for the first year – all you need is your content and you are good to go!
Enjoy!

Mar 1st
March 1st is a very special day because my youngest daughter is 9 years old today
The work day is being spent at my home office because the truck is in the shop after hitting a concrete block in the middle of the road – note to self: tires and concrete blocks do not mix.
Second note to self: make sure you jack the truck up properly when changing the tire or you won’t get the new one on you burk
Finishing off a magazine assignment today and readying for starting the next assignment for a Russian translation client. Lengthy projects always create problems in trying to disentangle from them with client rewrites and changes in the project specification. From a commercial point of view, it is important to make sure your client understands what the deliverables are and how you will deal with changes which fall outside the original agreement.
Your time is money, and preferably your time should be your client’s money rather than yours.

Below are brief summaries of what’s going on with each situation. In addition to taking care of these two immediate needs, we’re also looking for a long-term Wikipedia vendor, so we’re looking to establish a long-term relationship with you so that we can pass you more Wikipedia-related business in the future. 1. Get a Wikipedia Page Back Up for a Client A client of ours had their Wikipedia page erased because there weren’t enough solid references, and we were told that if we were to get one more solid reference from a business-journal (which we did), we’d be able to use that reference to get the Wikipedia article back online for good. Your task would include editing a currently “marked for deletion” article to include the new reference and get the Wiki back online. How much will this cost? How long will this take to get the page back online and sticking? 2. Wikipedia Back link Outreach We have a potential project for you and are looking for pricing regarding a Wikipedia Back link outreach campaign. Our client had 9 Wiki pages with back links to their website since 2007. Recently, they were removed out of the blue. The company is referenced throughout the articles and some of the companies images they submitted are being used on the Wiki as well. We need you to be an experienced Wiki editor, get the links back in the post and have them stick. How much will this cost? How long will it take to get a back link up on these 9 Wiki pages? Please provide us with any/all pertinent information as it relates to previous work, testimonials of your Wikipedia expertise and/or previous Wiki creation/editing/any other proof of your expertise. We are looking to get started right away. Alex

A new week starts and this is my first task of the week ahead on the last day of the month.
Busy, busy, busy for me as I’m not office bound. Virginia Beach on Wednesday with one client then up to DC on Friday for another – being a freelance writer does not mean you are always desk bound.
I have a rewrite for Forbes due in today for one client and a commercial script for another – I’ll be busy today getting them finished, but no matter how long it all takes today I had a great weekend (the first I’ve had off since Christmas so I really appreciated it).
Here are the free freelance jobs for the day and I’ll see you same time tomorrow. Have fun and good luck!

I’m on the hunt for a relatively active Wikipedia editor to aid with unbiased, non-promotional content creation for the site. I stress NON-PROMOTIONAL, as we just need a writer that’s already active in the community to write up Wikipedia-style content to add a few moderately large companies to their respective categories. We won’t ask for the editor to write up content for small businesses–only notable, well-documented brands with high online presence and history. We’re currently looking to add content for a national, acclaimed makeup company, a known Canadian health company, a tech company, and a few educational facilities. In your response, please inform us your past work/edits, if you’ve worked on paid campaigns before, and your rates. Thank you! it’s NOT ok to contact this poster with services or other commercial interests Compensation: your rates PostingID: 2230459102

| Ghost Rewrite for Childrens Book (Comp: Send rate) (Orlando) job-bdhkg-2228807452@craigslist.org : http://orlando.craigslist.org/wri/2228807452.html Date: 2011-02-22, 3:44PM EST Reply to: job-bdhkg-2228807452@craigslist.org [Errors when replying to ads?] I have written the idea for a story for a childrens book I want to publish. I want a ghost writer to go through and edit it for voice, add content, and proper punctuation, and grammar. Not sure where to budget this. Let me know your thoughts. The audience is 5-8 year old children with two households. It’s a Christmas story that I have told my son since he was old enough to ask about having two homes. I work in advertising and marketing and have strong social and digital marketing skills, however not a writer. I have an illustrator that can include unlimited illustrations so would love if we could annotate where an illustration would be most apropos. What I am looking for: Rewrite my story idea (505 words) into Picture book format- A standard children’s picture book is 32 pages. The front matter (title page, dedication, copyright) takes up several pages. Actual text usually begins on page 5 or 7. This leaves you with 25-28 pages to tell my story. Annotate where illustrations and thoughts of what they should be. A children’s picture book needs to strike a balance between the text and the illustrations. The text should be able to be divided up evenly, with a fairly equal amount of text on each page. Each page, or each double page spread, has a sentence or two or a paragraph. Each of these sentences or paragraphs must lend themselves to an illustration, and so your text should provide a variety of scenes, characters, or actions. You could think of this as writing “captions” for the (not-yet-drawn) pictures. Word choice- The language of children’s picture books is both spare and rich. The average picture book is 3- 7 typed, double-spaced pages. With so few words to develop a setting, character, and plot, each word really counts! There is little room for visual description- most of that will be done by the illustrator. Choose words that are vivid, words with action, sensory words, and words that are pleasing to the ear. Include poetic devises- rhythm, alliteration, repetition, refrains, onomatopoeia, similes, rhymes, word play. Location: Orlando Compensation: 1 Telecommuting is ok. Principals only.
