How to Apply for Craigslist Jobs for Freelance Writing

A lot of readers sometimes get confused on various freelance writing jobs posted here and in some freelance writing websites & blogs.

Perhaps the first question that they have in their minds is how to apply for craigslist jobs. Believe me – that was also my first question when I first got into Manila Craigslist. Over the months, I’ve managed to send emails to dozens of possible employers. However, always brace yourself for possible rejections or possible not-answered emails. But freelancing goes with it, I believe.

Here are some things to keep in mind when applying for craigslist jobs.

Samsung Galaxy Spica Android Phone – A 2-Week Love Affair

Once again, I’ve broken my promise of updating this site because of my depression over my former android phone.

A lot of you might wonder why I’m writing this blog. This is because, as in the title, it was only a two-week affair. As for the reason, you’d then read as you go along this blog entry.

Nevertheless, the Samsung Galaxy Spica is still one of my most wanted mobile phones. It was perfect for me. Until one fateful night…

Freelance Writing Jobs in the Philippines 06.28.2010

I don’t know about you guys, but the weather in Manila makes me feel really bad. Personally, I really don’t like the rain. Especially when my mobile phone got lost last Friday, a 2-week old Samsung Spica which I dearly loved, while it was raining around Rockwell, Makati.

The thief even asked for 5,000 pesos so he’d return my Spica.

I was still crying yesterday :-S

So if ever you buy a Samsung Spica with Nimbuzz, Parallel Kingdom (with my information, of course – my estate!!!), Stackers Lite and a whole bunch of programs and applications, it’s probably mine. Sigh.

Karma would definitely be soon.

Here are your freelance writing jobs!

Freelance Writing Jobs in the Philippines 06.24.10

The first job listing for Freelance Writing Philippines ever since school started! :)

As I’ve mentioned in my earlier posts, I’ve been having trouble finding the time to write. But it eventually paved way – so I am now back here :)

Just be cautious in applying for these work-at-home jobs because scammers are all over the world *_*

Disclaimer: I am merely compiling jobs which I’ve found all over the cyberspace. It is up to you to check whether these jobs are credible or not. However, I do request everybody to post comments about scam listings, or other clients who use their providers.

Oh, and somebody commented a very nice resource for freelance writing rates. :) Thanks for sharing!

Thanks and enjoy! :)

Freelance Writing Jobs Listing in the Philippines – Back! :)

Hello, guys!

As most of you have noticed, if there are any readers anyway, the site was left in the past for the past few months. Forgive me for my negligence – I got into law school and everything went unorganized. On the other hand, I feel like I’ve already gotten used to my schedule so I can squeeze in a few minutes to give you guys these jobs :)

BTW, I’ve basically stopped freelance writing – well, not as a full-time work, actually. I still write every once in a while to finance my needs to photocopy all the cases from the SCRA :D

I admire those who are somewhat ‘inspired’ by my little freelance writing story. I believe you, too, would get your big breaks in this industry and hopefully become great writers :)

Tomorrow would be the start of the freelance writing job listings again :

All the best! :)

Freelance Writing Jobs in the Philippines 05.17.10

Hello, guys!

It’s been a while since the last update of the site, but worry no more – I’m back and kicking :)

Over the past few weeks, I’ve received a number of emails regarding writing work and tax questions. I would like to stress that I do not accept all projects as I am busy, as well. However, I can post a link to your job posting if you would like :)

As for taxes regarding freelance writers, I believe that you can only file an Income Tax Return if you have registered your ‘freelance writing’ as your own business. Since you are self-employed and you want to file ITRs, then it is a must that you register your own business. Otherwise, I don’t think it is necessary.

Here are your freelance writing jobs for this Monday. Enjoy! :)

Why Freelance Writing Philippines Hasn’t Got New Posts for the Past Month

There comes a time when even freelancers get to be so busy, that they start to drop some of the stuff that they usually do. In my case, I dropped the site updates and the writing job leads because of those other things.

I’m so sorry for not updating this site. Boo. I missed writing, really.

The real reason? I took a law entrance exam and was kind of stressed out because of waiting for the results. In addition, I also had to wait for interview and the results which made me nervous. Boo.

Anyway, starting this Monday, I’d be posting freelance writing jobs again in the site. With law school enrollment finished, I have my free time back and I can now go back to writing again.

Cheers to everyone :)

Happy Easter! :)

I hope everybody had a peaceful and safe holy week :)

As for me, I didn’t even have the time to write stuff due to a lot of things. But today, I really do swear, I’ll write once again. It’s sort of hard to find the words to write when the words just don’t come into your mind that easily.

Sigh. Time to clear up your cluttered minds before heading on to writing. The same goes for me.

Here are your freelance writing jobs for this Monday :)

Freelance Writing Jobs in the Philippines 03.25.10

My mind must have been shaken by the latest Philippine earthquake which hit Mindoro with a magnitude of 6.1.

What made me panic was the fact that I saw spontaneous things written in social networking sites from people in QC, Manila, Taguig, Pasig…plus me here in Bulacan.

I thought I was simply dizzy, but my brother said ‘Earthquake!’ just as he was playing NBA 2010.

I hope nothing has been destroyed and nobody has been hurt.

Here are your freelance writing jobs for this Thursday. Keep safe! :)

Freelance Writing Jobs in the Philippines 03.22-23.10

The past week was certainly crazy, so I really have to apologize for not writing anything.

In a matter of hours, I decided to enlist myself for a law entrance exam. Within a few days, I needed to furnish copies of recommendation letters from my professor and other people. Upon reaching that graduate school in Makati, I then learned that I only had three days before I’d get to take my exam.

Oh, the rush.

Hence, my schedule didn’t allow me to write. I swear, I did not get the chance to write last week, and I really miss it.

Here’s one lead for all: somebody emailed me to post a job. The pay isn’t very high, but the work is continuous. It’s number 1 in the list :)

Anyway, here are your freelance writing jobs for Monday and Tuesday.

Have a nice week ahead! :)
