		<description><![CDATA[Each December, I take some time to go over how the current year&#8217;s freelancing went and to plan for next year. This year, though, I&#8217;ve decided to take another route. December has been a time to reflect on my freelance career. I&#8217;ve been quite fortunate in that I&#8217;ve been able to make a good living [...]

		<description><![CDATA[To be honest, I&#8217;m not an obsessive counter. Not of words, or of how much I&#8217;ve written. OK, I&#8217;ve mentioned when I&#8217;ve broken some barriers, but strangely enough friends informed me of those numbers. It&#8217;s not that I don&#8217;t pay attention to how much I&#8217;m writing on certain article assignments, but I can&#8217;t tell you [...]

		<description><![CDATA[Goals. They&#8217;re important for success in any endeavour or line of work. That includes freelance writing. In fact, I&#8217;d say that for the freelancer goals are essential. Having goals not only enables us to grow as writers and as professionals, but also drives us to increase our incomes. Setting goals is easy. When I was [...]

		<description><![CDATA[As you may or may not remember, at the beginning of this year I started a process of rewiring the systems. While the process is going well, it&#8217;s going to take a little longer than I anticipated it would. Why? As I&#8217;ve discovered, it&#8217;s not something you can rush. Intrigued? Then keep reading. Influences and [...]

Which explains why posting has been &#8230; well, more than just a tad thin over the last little while. Part of that rewiring has involved changes to my writing Web site. Part of that is [...]

		<description><![CDATA[At the beginning of 2008, I started an experiment in goal setting. Mainly to tame some of the organizational chaos in my life, and to better be able to deal with low points that invariably occur during the year. I called this experiment 30 Goals in (About) 300 Days. Around half of the goals revolve [...]

Overall, it was a good year. I was able to accomplish most of my goals, had a few pleasant surprises, and fell short on [...]

My 200th article was published today, in a California-based publication called ComputorEdge.So, what does this mean? I&#8217;m still not sure. It could lead to a flood of articles. I could keep [...]
