Losing Weight

If you are like most people, than losing weight can be hard sometimes. I know I have had my ups and downs about it myself. There is so much different foods to try on the market, and even more technology available that seems to keep us inside. It is important to get outside and exercise, or even exercise to videos in the home if we can't get out-and its also VERY important to keep a healthy diet and eat the foods that are healthy for us...


On Fiverr.com, there was a client who had a weight-loss program that they wanted me to blog about. It's called The Mediterranean Diet.


Here is the description of the Mediterranean Diet:


Do you love eating well? The Mediterranean diet is based on delicious foods. It is a way to live well, be well, and get to a healthy weight (and stay there) without feeling deprived or hungry.


I know that I would like to be able to eat what I want-without feeling deprived--and then actually stay at my goal weight! You can still eat what you want (in moderation)-have a positive mind set-YES -you can meet your goals, --and have plenty of optimism..... A positive mind with happy thoughts-will help you get to where you want to go! With the Mediterranean diet, you can learn how to lose weight naturally,  lower cholesterol naturally, (for pregnant women-learn to eat a healthy pregnancy diet) and learn about monounsaturated fats.

Introducing: Pyxism....

At Fivver.com, one of my clients wanted me to tell you a little about his company, Pyxism. 

Its actually a travel company where you can get discounts on products and vacations that you can sell at retail. Those who decide to take advantage of this new home-based-business will have access to thousands of resorts world-wide at steep discounts-That they can then offer to consumers. Sellers can also have the chance to book their own travel as well. When you sell one of these great get-aways to a customer, you earn commissions. 


If you had always wanted to get into the travel business, and offer exotic vacations, then this is your time to lock into Pyxism's home based business... Should you be one of the millions who have found him/herself out of work and looking for a new opportunity, perhaps you can read more about this business...

Busy as a Bee!

The Rural Freelance Writer here has been quite busy!  I have had many writing orders and clients in the last month or so. Recently, I found a new website to provide writing services to called, "Fiverr.com." I offer to write 300-400 word articles for $5. There also is a new Twitter and blogging service that I just started offering, so you may see some new advertisements or reviews about websites to come on this blog too. 

Then, I got a cool idea to start advertising my writing services on Ebay! I don't know why I didn't think of that before! I also have been getting many clients from Ebay and have been trying to keep up with orders there as well. It has been a very busy time for me. 


To some, it may not seem like much-but in one day-I made $114 just from writing--It was great to feel that I made that just from my own writing services.... Was really awesome....


--So be ready readers--you may be meeting some of my new client friends here at the Rural Freelance Writer--as I review their topics and introduce them to you......


So if you don't hear much from me much---Its because my fingers are busy typing and dancing all over the keyboard!.... I promise to check in every now and then though!

Technology Blog

Hello to all of my readers who read my blog:) I've been keeping busy with local festivals and trying to find ways to get more hits on my articles and blogs as well. 


I have started another blog--a "niche" blog focused on technology. Since I am a featured technology contributor at Associated Content, I figured that I would begin to share some of my technology articles.










For those who would like to follow or start reading my technology blog, you can read it by clicking on the link below: 


Technology and Family
http://technologynfamily.blogspot.com/

It will feature articles about games or websites for children, new electronics, useful websites or links to free software and tips on using the Internet. I mostly will try to feature basic or daily Internet tips or websites that are focused on family or children--instead of advanced users... 


Hope you decide to come on over and take a read :) .... 

Yahoo! News Bytes August 12, 2010

I write for Associated Content and now Associated Content is a part of Yahoo!.... Thought I would post this video for you all to see :) It's kinda neat....

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!...
