Professional Writers Will Wean, Wither and Wilt

Professional freelance writers who write public relations articles, magazine articles, and trade journal articles are a dying breed. Recently one public relations writer and well-known screenplay writer wrote a slamming and scathing article about online article submission sites and how amateur authors like me are hurting the professional freelance writers from making money.

Well, that is show business isn’t it? Deal with it, that is supply and demand and I am allowed to produce as much as I want for whatever price I wish to sell my work. As an amateur hobbyist, I have written 7000 articles and put them online. Half of them are not very good, 25% or passable and 15% are good and 10% are excellent and my price is FREE. You could say I am the real FREE-Lance writer, as my name is Lance and I charge nothing for my work as I am retired now.

But this poses a slight dilemma now as I have taken what was a fad and increased it into a trend and many other online article writers who are purely amateurs now feel empowered to write more articles and share their information with the world on the greatest information and communication device ever created; the Internet.

Professional Writers are worried because they cannot compete for free and believe they cannot sell their writing for enough money? Tough luck, because that is business and this is all about supply and demand. If you cannot compete, because your articles are too flowery, written over the average readers head or you will not lower your ego to match the new market place price; well then eat my dust!

Incidentally I did write an article (1 of the 7000) on paper plates and plastic forks for the paper and plastic industry, if you need help in consuming the granular of sand?
