Before you start writing, do research about your topic. People read articles for information. Moreover, they could be in search for a solution to a hounding problem and so, they have to be given facts. Quality research produces quality article. Hence, quality article articles add a feather to your cap.

With regards to your clients, be sure to give them what they want. Clients could be very specific with the articles that they want from you. Delivering the output they desire will greatly speak about your integrity as a writer. Likewise, consider the length of time and subject matter that will be given you before you accept any project. Beating deadlines is not only important on the side of your client but on your side too – for sure, you don’t want your tasks piling up and messing up your schedule.

On Real Books And Ebooks

I may have been a fan of the traditional book, but I cannot deny the fact that I also love to read books using my Kindle especially when I travel. This offers a lot of convenience on my end because I do not need to carry a full bag of books, I just have to bring my electronic book reader with me when I  go out. :) But when I prefer to stay at home especially during weekends and holidays, I still hold a real book. That enables me to save on electricity costs as well, since I need to charge my Ebook reader so I can use it again as opposed to the traditional book .
