Happy Autumn!

Happy Autumn!

 

  I hope everyone is enjoying this beautiful time of year. I have many more peices in mind pertaining to this beautiful time of year. Seeing the leaves change here in Michigan is an awe striking site.

As far as when those pieces will be out; I am not sure as my husband and I have some things to take care of in our personal lives but they will be out as soon as possible.

Since my last blog entry, I’ve written five peieces for AC and I’ve started writing for Triond. I have made the decision to not work for Suite 101. Although this seemed like an excellent oppurtunity at the time, with my current health care needs, I can only write for so many sites at a time. AC, Textbroker, Triond, and hopefully soon today.com. I cannot meet Suite 101’s standards and find said standards a little much for page views only.

There will be more articles on AC from me soon, on several topics. These topics include easy ideas to be more “green”, a bit on my life with cerebral palsy and misconceptions of CP among a few others.

My husband Sam has also joined AC. I’ll leave his link below with links to my stuff as usual. Stop by and have a read if you enjoy really good poetry and fun reads about pop culture. Take Care All. As always thank you for reading.

Hope

Hello Everybody,

     Hope all is well for everybody in internet land! Things are looking up here as I have found more work. I have very recently been accepted at Suite 101 and I’m testing out a new site textbroker.com. Both seem very promising, but I will cotinue with Associated Content regardless of the results yeilded by these two sites.

     My husband is still looking for work(to bring in extra money and the health insurance) and managing many of the household tasks. I wish I could help more with them but they are things that my disability prevents me from being able to do. The writing is my way of contributing to the household because I would find it inexcusble to sit on my butt while he does all that he does for us.  Its a standing agreement in our marriage that both of us most contribute positively to our life together and that and our marriage come first.  If others don’t like that then they need not be around and if they grow to a point of interfering with our abilities to do that they will no longer be welcome.

   The new jobs will require a lot more work and will have shorter deadlines. As with AC, I don’t work I don’t get paid. If I don’t meet a deadline I don’t get paid or I could be fired or both. Meaning we will both be even more busy than ever but it will be well worth it finanacally as the basics of life are changing in price all the time. Living on such a limited income is rough and we have always known things would be an uphill battle for us but people who make things harder by interfering or being too demanding of our time only make things worse.(Explaining the rant above..sorry about that) Every penny that comes into this house is needed to eat, clean the house, and pay bills. That is why your reading my work is so appreciated. Thank you so much everyone. Every last one of you helps more than you will ever know. God Bless. Read on.

More new stuff on the way!

Hey All,

  Immediately following this blog post I will begin work on the first of five new articles I’ll be submitting to AC. The first will be an article with advice for mixed ability couples, that is couples where one partner is disabled and the other is not disabled. My husband and I have been together for just over 6 years and married a 1 1/2 of that time. He is able-bodied and I have cerebral palsy. We’ve learned a lot about how to be happy despite a lot of obstacles in that time. With his full support, I plan to share a few keys of that happiness with readers.

Other articles heading for AC’s queue are articles on what not to do if your loved one marries someone from another country and what not to do if a love one marries someone with a disability. All of these will be based on personal experience. (My husband Sam is from England)

Another things planned include general advice for brides, more reviews, and  some articles on various cultures. The first of these will be a piece about Danish culture, something unusual and an interesting topic I have enjoyed researching. I am of Danish descent(I’m only a 3rd generation American) and enjoy genealogy and history so this article series should be fun!

Please be patient everyone, remember that just because something doesn’t appear right away on the site, this doesn’t mean it is not complete. Many of my articles are for upfront payment, meaning I submit an article after researching it for however long needed, then write, which is often the shortest part of writing, then place it in th AC queue for consideration for a payment before publishing.

The entire process from submitting a piece to it being published can take up to two weeks. Sometime around the articles’ publication,usually a few days after or before is when writers are paid.

     So if something has a publication date of March 1st, it most likely in my case will have been written at least several days before the publication date, if not a week or two. The only things published immediately are those which I(or any other AC Content Producer) publishes for royalties only. These things include such things as poetry and recipes and those few articles( in my case) that AC rejects for upfront payment.

Hope all is well with everyone and I look forward to the next post. Happy Easter Everyone! Please feel free to share my link with anyone who you think may be interested. Thanks for reading everyone.

Best Wishes to All,

Jennifer

Happy St. Patrick’s Day

Happy St. Patrick’s Day to one and all,

   Hope you all have a good time at any festivites you attend today. Please enjoy and don’t drink and drive. Be safe everyone.

I’m going to go out today and am going to look for new article topics, shortly after I place my poker night recipes on Associated Content. I hope you enjoy them.

Plenty of new stuff is coming, my advice for new brides,a few disabilty realated articles to help clear some misconceptions, and a few other as yet unknown things for fun and entertainment. I have three reviews in the queue at AC, they should be out soon. Hope you all have a great day!

Thank you for reading!

Read, learn,enjoy.

Best of luck to all!

I’m hunting work

Hey everybody,

    Writing to let you all know I’m still hard at work on that stuff for Associated Content. I’m also biding my time to get started with a few pay per blog entry websites(most of them require that the blog in question be at least 90 days old.)The reviews are coming with or without an upfront offer. I’ve done 3 PV only articles in the last month to help boost lagging pageviews, one more; the poker night recipes will be up soon. An unusal C4C but I’ll enjoy it since I like cooking.

  I’d like to thank the Barefoot and all his guest contributors for his blog chalk full of AC tips. I’m applying them to recent writing as best as I can. Thank you All very much.

Back to work I go writing and looking for other opportunities in addition to AC.

Thanks again for reading all.

I need another computer,lol

Hello Friends, readers,and everyone else,

  Sorry I haven’t updated in a few days but work has to come first. I have placed a new Easter Dinner Menu on AC. It has a few recipes I make for Easter that are always a hit. It is basically my roast chicken dinner recipe. I often make it for my husband on special occasions and I hope you all enjoy if you give it a try for whatever reason.

  I am currently working on over one dozen reviews for Associated Content and plan to add about a half dozen health and wellness articles to that list. I will be adding something more small and brief for St. Patick’s Day than originally planned, because I have gotten a huge assignment from a foreign tourism site today and a few things will have to wait because I only have about a week to complete it. Ah..the good old deadline-can’t be a writer without them.

At the same time(this will explain the title) my husband has to apply for work using this computer so it will be tricky but we’ll get it all done somehow. Hopefully I can not only someday help provide us with a living but get myself a laptop computer, that way no matter what I can write, even if I can’t be up and about and post things I can still prepare them. 

  No matter what I am determined to succeed at this work I do, because through AC and other places on the net. I have found the best way to make my contribution a better life for Sam and I at the moment.  More importantly, people seem to find what I’m writing useful and entertaining.   That’s my goal for now, it is hard to think of the future with so much work to do, and my getting old at least by standards of my peers.

  Anyhow, I have to get to work. Thanks for reading all.

Good Morning!:)

Hello everybody,

  I hope everyone had a nice rest last night and is ready for a new day. I wrote a post last night and I am wondering how it got erased. I’m not quite sure how that happened but it is probably due to something I did accidentally while fiddling with the site. Sorry about that,I’m still getting use to blogging.

  A few new things will be up on AC this week. A piece on St. Patrick’s Day, another on birthday party games, reviews, recipes and advice for new brides will be coming soon. As spring arrives I’ll be writing more. Winter tends to hamper what and when I write, because I’m often literally stuck in one spot.

Michigan winters make it hard for me to get out and about which can often slow down the writing but that will soon change. I find spring inspiring and downright beautiful. I can’t wait to get started, have a good day everybody.

-Jennifer
