Okay--So It seems I took the summer off from blogging

Alright readers---are you still here? .. Perhaps there is new readers? ... It seems that I have taken the summer off from blogging without actually meaning to. I've been sorta busy with a few mini vacations, writing for other websites, working at my out of home part time job and just doing thing around the house. I guess I have neglected my little blog here. 


With school starting in just days, I figured I would get re-acquainted with this blog of mine and begin writing as the "Rural Freelance Writer" once again. 


I am still writing for some websites---these websites include:


*Demand Studios
*Associated Content
*Examiner.com
*123 Experts (on occasion)


---------------------------------


Recently, I also submitted an article to my local newspaper to see if I could possibly catch a by-line...  I will find out soon to see if it will get published. It was an article about saving money for school supplies.  I have also been busy writing tech articles for back to school at Associated Content as well.


Here are some links to my back to school technology articles: 


5 Popular and Affordable Cell Phones for Students


10 Affordable Gadgets for Back to School


Five Back-to-School Budget-Friendly Laptops for Students



----------------------------------------------


I am trying to come up with new articles for Examiner so that I can begin to make money there as well. At Examiner, I am only paid for page-views but some writers seem to do extremely well over there. So if you know of a food festival, restaurants, popular grocery or specialty food stores around the Champaign, IL area--please let me know :) I would be happy to write about them and give them online exposure...


For now--I am signing out---I will be back again and promise not to stay away for so long next time!...
