		<description>I am a writer for three years now and I used my skills in writing to earn money. Freelance writing is my way of earning money online. As other says, &quot;sell your expertise&quot;.</description>

		<description>Hi Theda-

This is my first visit to your blog. I found you through Entrecard, which I&#039;m beginning to really like becasue I&#039;ve found so many great blogs lately.

I just wanted to make a comment about online article writing. Among many things, I&#039;m a writer also.

Looking at online article writing in terms of freelancing, you simply have to see at it as a completely different market than magazine,  or story writing for print media in terms of compensation.

While payment is MUCH different for online article writing, it&#039;s not necessarily peanuts. You can maintain credibility by carefully choosing the projects you accept.

Sometimes the trade-off is greater exposure, sometimes it&#039;s cultivating clientèle, sometimes its actually making more money by doing more projects (volume vs high-paying project).

What I&#039;m saying is online article writing is another alternative. It&#039;s not necessarily better or worse than other markets. It&#039;s just different.</description>

		<description>Hi Max,

Thank you so much for the wonderful compliment. I&#039;m glad you stop to read Crayon Writer, and I hope I keep writing what you like. I&#039;m so happy you took the time to comment. I&#039;m finding that comments really inspire me to write.

I hope you have a great day, and I&#039;ll check out your &quot;racy&quot; blog too. :)

Sincerely,
Theda</description>

		<description>Dear Theda:

I find myself visiting your nice blog regularly in my &quot;entrecard dropping.&quot; I have met a lot of new people through that (entre) program, so it is not a waste of time by any means, even if it isn&#039;t really much good, advertising-wise, sometimes. On many sites I often just &quot;drop and run&quot;, but I seem to always put on the brakes when I come to your blog and read what you have to say. You are a great writer, I think.

Keep up the good work. I just wanted to go one extra step this time and actually make a comment.

(It&#039;s pretty &quot;racy&quot;, so you don&#039;t have to visit. I just wanted to compliment you on your writing.)</description>

		<description>Good summary Theda - it very much ties in with my experience, although I&#039;m now spending more time writing books, which seems to be working well.
