Thank you so much to the WF community! Work is plentiful and I am eternally thankful.
This post might not sit well with everyone but I am afraid it's time to think forward and put in to action some new requirements.
I am completely swamped until October 1, 2010. Anyone wishing to contact me from this moment forward must wait until after that date. My bulk orders on deck will be completed by then but in the mean time, they need my full-time attention. (I might be able to swing an additional article here and there but not more than two or three per inquiry until after my orders are complete.)
Further, upon doing a ton of research and speaking with some committed clients, it's been brought to my attention that my prices were too low for the quality. Although I can not compete with the 1/100 writers for their price points, I believe those wishing to pay for excellent content will not mind my higher rates. Folks with comparable writing skills are asking much more than I am.
Therefore, I will remain LOWER than my comparable competitors but still charge more than I am now STARTING OCTOBER 1, 2010.
Therefore, new price points are listed below.
300 words = $12
400 words = $13
500 words = $14
I understand this will deter some of you from hiring me but all I can say is that I write by myself, with a new baby, in my Brooklyn home. There has only been one person I could not write for (upon accepting an offer) because his niche reached well over four-hours of research for a single $6 article. I was quite surprised. I don't always require payment first because of this reason.
I am very happy here and I hope to continue working with members. You are terrific.
Yours,
Beth
