Write On!



Hi All

Many apologies for not posting recently but I have been really busy. Easter Holidays and catching up with things after that! My daughter said she was having difficulty hearing at school so I took her to the doctors and we ended up with a number of appointments at the hospital and when we went there we ended up with more appointments, which haven’t finished yet!

I have been trying to earn some money by writing SEO content but that didn’t work out well! I used people per hour but neither of the clients I got worked out. One was removed from the website and so I didn’t send them any work and the other wanted to work through Skype and I wrote some articles for them but never got paid!

So instead of wasting the articles I put them on Vocal so they couldn’t use them either. Unfortunately one of the articles was already used and had be copywrited so I couldn’t use put it on. I have a number of articles on Vocal already and have been paid one by them for doing a survey and am nearly up to the $35 dollars I need for a payout. You need to promote your own articles and I have put them on Facebook and Twitter.

I did make some money from writing articles a few years ago from clients I found on Absolute Write forum https://absolutewrite.com/forums/forum.php but I haven’t found any jobs on there recently.

There must be plenty of work out there for writers of Blog content, articles for websites and other things. I will be looking into that soon and let you know!

First Steps

Hi all! Nice to meet you.
I’m Clare and I was made redundant on 30th November last year from a job I’d only been in for 2 years. I’m not used to being unemployed, if I leave a job it’s usually only to go onto another one. Fortunately I had been there long enough to get some redundancy money so that saw us over Christmas.
I wasn’t expecting to get a job very quickly as it was the Christmas season and employers aren’t looking for new staff at that time, I thought come January something would come up. It didn’t! I’ve found about half a dozen jobs I could apply for, not all in my usual field of bookkeeping and only had one interview since then which I didn’t get. So things aren’t looking so good.

As an older single mum with an 11 year old daughter who is very active, I knew we’d have to make some changes. On the plus side, I won’t be spending as much money on petrol driving into work and sitting in traffic jams and my electricity use won’t go up much as we only have electricity which won’t …

Save Energy

I went to see a friend the other day who has a big, old house and she said we were the only people who she didn’t hand a blanket too when they walked in the door as we had a cold house too! I only have electricity, no gas, so I try to get by all winter with just using one storage heater, two when it gets really cold and an electric stove if I’m caught by some really cold weather. So the upstairs in my house isn’t heated at all.
Our energy bills are one of our biggest expenses after rent/mortgage and food. So I think we need to look at some ways to save on these bills.
1.Turn off standby appliances. So any TVs or other appliances should be turned off at the wall. Don’t leave laptops or mobile phones on charge when they are charged up.
2.Turn down your thermostat. If you are lucky enough to have central heating controlled by a thermostat, you can save quite a bit of money by turning it down just by one degree. You can also use the timer to make sure that your house is only heated when you …

Saving on Energy Costs

Here are a few tips on how to use less energy and save the planet as well as money!
1.Just by turning your thermostat down by 1⁰C, which you really won’t notice, can reduce your heating costs by about £75 a year.
2.Wear more clothes! Just wear slippers, extra socks and a jumper at home and add an extra blanket at night and you won’t need to turn the heating back up.
3.If you have a power shower, you should turn the pressure down as they can use more water than a bath.
4.Use your oven to warm up. When you’ve finished cooking, leave the oven door open to warm the kitchen. It might even let you turn your thermostat down even further and much better than using an extractor fan to throw that heat out!
5.Keep your fridge and freezer full so they use less energy.
6.Use your washing machine on a lower temperature; it’s better for your clothes as well as your energy bills!
7.If you are still using a tumble drier, take the clothes out before they are totally dry to cut energy and make ironing quicker …
