oDesk’s 40 Freelance Writing Blogs to Follow
Posted by kathrynv at 8:20 am in blogging, link love, writing

I wanted to share a great link today. oDesk (a terrific resource) has posted a new set of 40 Freelance Writing Blogs to follow. They don’t just list them either – they give a really great breakdown of who each blog author is, why the blog is a great read and what specific pieces to check out on the blog.

I personally haven’t checked out all of these blogs yet but many of them are ones that I’m already following. Out of the ones that I am familiar with from the forty on the list, my top ten favorites are:

  1. All Freelance Writing.
  2. Bizzia.
  3. Freelance Writing Jobs Network.
  4. Get Paid to Write Online.
  5. Men with Pens.
  6. Poe War.
  7. The Renegade Writer Blog.
  8. Thursday Bram.
  9. The Urban Muse.
  10. Write to Done.

Which is your favorite freelance writing blog?

Hub Pages Love 3/26/08
Posted by kathrynv at 9:27 pm in hubpages, link love

I’m a big fan of HubPages, a site where people can publish content about nearly any topic under the sun. I write for the site myself but I also appreciate the fact that I can learn about a whole lot of things from the others who publish their content there. Because I do love this site so much, I’ve decided to start sharing my favorite posts from the day on a regular basis.

Here are my favorite HubPages articles from today:

Happy reading! Hope you enjoy them as much as I did.

It’s Easter morning. If I was still a kid I’d be up early hunting through the house from the “prize” Easter eggs and checking out what kind of candy was in my basket. The adult equivalent is a lazy morning spent hunting through the Internet for gems of writing that inspire and inform me.

Here are some of those posts:

And here are some links to the articles that I authored this week and particularly like:

I think it’s important for writers and bloggers to share with others what they are reading. It supports the work that other web writers are doing. It also points readers in the direction of quality content that can assist them in their own writing or at least entertain them for a little while.

Question of the Day: What recent post or article available online do you recommend to web writers today?

I love Sunday mornings. Although I do spend some time hunting down news for my work over at DSLReports.com, I also get to spend a nice chunk of time just reading some of the blog posts and news articles that are lurking around the blogosphere. During the rest of the week, I publish a daily column called Inspired! which shares those things that inspire me most … but on Sundays my source of inspiration is all writing from around the web.

Here are some of the things that I’m reading about writing, blogging and creativity and other stuff:

And here are some of the my favorite posts that I authored this week which I encourage you to consider checking out:

Sunday mornings. What a great time for laying in bed, computer propped up against your lap, browsing through the blog posts and news articles that you didn’t get a chance to read throughout the busy week.
