Question Regarding Sale

I sold an article in December that was purchased (Unique Rights) by a magazine. The magazine is not online, so I was wondering how to find out what month it was published in the magazine. Should I contact them myself or would that be something that Constant Content does? I would like to have the dat...

Being a freelance writer full-time is something I've wanted forever. I finally gave up my career in real estate to become full-time in Feb. of this year. While the money is obviously not as good, I wouldn't change it for the world. I don't have young children at home (they are pretty much grown) so ...

I'm from a small town on the coast of Maine, about 45 minutes north of Portland. Living on the coast, we get a lot of tourists that come up for the "lobstah".

I understand it can take up to 3 days. What I'm saying, however, is that when I first joined, they were done almost immediatly. At one point, I was having articles approved within an hour. Then, over the past couple of months, things have slowed down. I still try to submit for requests, but what is ...

Yeah, this is what just happened. My article is still waiting for approval and the request is now gone. To be honest, when I first started this site, I was submitting at least 4 articles a day. For the last couple of months, I haven't bothered. I've found other places to submit my work to and while ...

Long Time For Approval

Just wanted to ask how long it takes to get approved. When I first joined, I found that things were being approved the same day and sometimes with in an hour of being submitted. For the last 20 hours, there are no recent articles being shown. I look under recent articles to see if things are moving ...

I will speak up and say that I have written such things as "written per your request" and "if there are any changes you desire, please let me know". This is called Promoting Yourself which is what writers do. I don't mean to sound rude or offend anyone...I just prefer to keep to ...

Great question...I've been wondering that myself. Sometimes during the week, I'll submit one and they'll come back accepted within five to ten minutes. I think weekends, however, are when most people sit down and write and they get backed up. I've been trying to hold off on submitting a lot on the w...

Sometimes we write articles and nothing gets purchased and then, all of a sudden, somebody else will come along and purchase your article. I just became...
