So its been about 2 months since I've had any work from my client. He changed his focus from registry cleaners to driver update software, my company thought he was planning on doing both still so I was on stand by for the registry cleaner software. I sent a email to my editor basically going "Wtf? Where work? If you need any people on his other stuff let me know and I'm on it."
Well a half package opened up. That's half of what I usually do. 12 days worth of work. UGH. I'm going to have to see if there's other half packages that will fill in the time in between. Otherwise I'll be making half what I usually make a month. On the plus side I don't depend on this income to pay my bills. I use it to make trips back to the mainland to visit family. Used to be a trip or 2 a year. Now with me attached its going to be less as we'll want to travel together(IE take turns to each other's family, etc.). And here I have a nephew in diapers I'd like to see more than once a year.
I've signed up for Google Alerts with my keywords as the alerts so I will get up to 20 links with those keywords daily to choose from and hopefully info and inspiration to work from writing wise. My keywords are REALLY broad. The how to parts are easy. The coming up w/ the specific error to fix is the hard part of writing. Then end it with introducing the driver update software, telling what it does and a "Gee whiz don't you want to try it?" and a link. Easy. Its always the beginning of the articles that's the hard part for me.
