I started writing freelance articles about a year and a half ago. I’m getting the hang of it. I figured out how to write a decent pitch letter. I know who should get the pitches. I know how to promote articles after they’ve been written. If I have an article, I feel very confident that I can get it published somewhere. I like writing these articles. It’s all good, except for the fact that I feel like I booked a ticket on the Titanic AFTER it hit the iceberg. I’m not really sure that this is a good time in history to start writing for traditional magazines and newspapers.

So, I’m taking a break from all that for a few months and working on a couple of websites that have been on the back burner. I have a theory that smart CAN work on the Internet, if it is done the right way. These projects are part of a grand experiment. I’ll give you a glimpse of the first effort in September. Right now, I’m working behind the scenes creating content.
