About
I’ve been a writer for as long as I can remember and a professional freelance writer for over five years. This blog is a collection of my thoughts on writing, my tips for making money at it and my experience in eking creativity out of a life that’s comprised of writing all day long.
Here are some of the other things that you can find regularly on Real Words:
- Inspired! This is a daily column in which I reveal what things are inspiring to me and what I plan to do with that inspiration. Images, artists, songs, theories, and books may be things that inspire me enough to warrant a mention here. They show what the inspiration was and how it impacts my writing work.
- Green writing. One of the issues that concerns me is how we can all be a little more eco-friendly in our everyday actions and specifically in our web writing work. I regularly post articles on how to be a greener writer and how to implement green creativity into your life. For example, here are 8 ways to green your writing.
- Writing tips. I do a whole lot of writing on a daily basis so I have lots of tips and information and ideas to share. There are blogging and social networking tips on this site as well although they aren’t the focus of the site.
- Creative reading. I’m a big fan of books about writing and creativity so I read them regularly and offer information, reviews and links to them here on Real Words.
- Project updates. I think it’s good for creative people to see the entire process that other creative folks go through so I regularly post updates about my personal projects to facilitate this. There will be links to my ongoing work and insight into how I approached it, felt about it and am moving forward from it.
