A Timely Reminder About Write-from-Home.Com

A Write-from-Home Reminder
Write-from-home.com is a website that I've written about before. In my May 11th, 2007 post, Write-from-Home.Com: A New Site for Freelance Writers, I introduced this site to my readers, as the excellent resource that it is for writers.
Recently, Amy Derby, who runs the site, purchased a reprint of one of my articles, which appeared on my blog back in June and which she has just published in her September online e-zine. And, although this isn't really the reason I'm bringing her site up again (since my blog's readers have likely already read the post in question), it's as good a reason as any to remind everyone of a great site where writers will find helpful writing-related articles, writing markets and contest listings, and even a blog with some really great content.
The Write-from-Home Blog
With all the other helpful info on the site, it would be easy to overlook the Write-from-Home blog--but don't, because it's loaded with helpful tips, information, advice, and resources that can help you succeed. One post even contains a warning about a possible scam currently being advertised on Craigslist. So, check it out. I know you'll get a great deal out of this blog, as well as the rest of the site.
Some topics covered on the blog, in addition to the possible Craigslist scam, are these: dealing with stress as a freelance writer, the freelance workload "rollercoaster," setting up a home office on a budget, getting published as a new freelance writer, and freelance writing terms explained (quite a long list of them, too).
The Write-from-Home Market
So, if you've never been to Write-from-Home.Com--or haven't been there lately--drop by for a visit. You'll find a great deal of helpful information there.
And, if your forte just happens to be writing about selling your writing, you might just be able to sell some of your writing right there--since Amy buys both original articles and reprints for her Write-from-Home e-zine. (She pays $75 for unpublished articles and $30 for reprints.) Check out her Guidelines to find out what she's looking for.
Stop by Write-from-Home.Com--and give your freelance writing career a boost!
Happy reading!

I am a blogger with only a week of experience under my belt, so I need all the tips I can get!
You'll definitely be hearing from me again

Great to meet you! And glad to be able to be of help!
If you have a little time to go through the Writer's Notes archives, you'll find numerous posts scattered throughout that contain info on other websites that buy work of various types from writers.
Maybe I'll do a compilation post soon, where I go back in and find those posts and then link to all of them in a single post--giving my readers one-stop shopping for an online publisher for their work.
I also have a few posts about websites that have multiple market listings on their sites, and perhaps I'll do a combo post on these, sometime in the near future, as well.
Welcome to Orble! Best of luck with your blog--and with any other writing you might be interested in doing!
Thanks for the visit--and the comment!
Jeanne
P.S. If you haven't checked out my post, A Writer's Notes Archival Revival: Posts to Help Writers Succeed, you'll find it to be a compilation of some of my older posts that contain helpful info and links to sites that provide great advice and resources to help writers improve their writing, become successful, etc.

It is a helpful site indeed! Perhaps you have some posts in the Writing Thoughts archives that you'd want to submit to Amy's e-zine as reprints, as I've done. You might be able to pick up a few extra dollars that way, at the same time making the most of your posts and getting greater exposure for them. You'd also be helping more writers by giving them some valuable tools that can help them succeed!
Thanks for the visit!
