Need some good vibes ladies!Submitted by enygma on Thu, 01/03/2008 - 7:32pm.
I asked for a raise. Big, deep, cleansing sigh. We really need the money - suddenly everything, including surprise bills, sortof piled up all at once and our barely-eeking-an-existance lifestyle became vastly insufficient. I write freelance for a local paper. The pay sucks, but it could suck less. So I asked for a raise. BTW, any of you ladies know much/anything about freelance writing? (((((((*V*i*B*e*S))))))))) I know crap about freelance writing. I'd like to break into it but haven't got a clue. I will meditate on your raise, though! |
Good luck on the raise!
I did freelance writing for about three years for a few different educational publishers. It was sporadic and nothing to rely on, but payed well when I did get work. My mom and step-dad are both in the publishing world, which is how I managed to get some gigs. If they hadn't helped me get my foot in the door I don't know how I would have gotten into it. I may still have some contact info I can send you if you are interested.
