Working on the Blog
I have been thinking about working on this blog again. I need to write some useful articles on things to get some practice. The thing about writing useful stuff is that you have to do some research. This should not be a problem. I went to college and studied physics. Research should be easy.
Right now I am just killing some time before I go back to reading about how to make money as a writer. The thing about making money as a writer is that you have to get people to give you money for something you write. This is the same thing involved in doing anything for money. It helps if what you write is useful when you are looking to get paid. Maybe I am just not useful enough.
I read about advertising for a while this morning. I might go now and write an advertisement for another one of my paintings. So far I have 11 advertisements up on Craigslist and only have a few spam replies trying to sell me make money products. Still, it is an interesting experiment. I have wondered if a person can sell stuff on Craigslist. Well, you can, if anyone wants what you are selling.
This blog is huge. I can hardly believe I have written so much in the last year. It has given me something to do as far as developing my writing skills. What I need to do now is find some kind of writing gig that pays. I wrote for helium.com for a while before I started this project. That never worked out so well. Right now, I think I am going to go back to reading books for a while. This blog can take care of itself for the time being.
