Another week has flown by in the blogosphere and what a busy one it’s been! There are a few great articles for your attention this week, so without further ado I’ll get on with it.

Picture this. You’re in an elevator with another person when they ask you what you do for a living. How do you respond? You could just say “I’m a freelance writer” and be done with it but did you consider that this is an opportunity to polish your self-marketing skills? Neither did I. Jodee did however and she posted 5 Tips for Creating an Elevator Speech over on Freelance Writing Jobs.

When you’re starting out in the freelancing world it’s very easy to get caught up in all the mundane, day-to-day tasks that need to be done in order to run a successful business. Ideally of course you’d want to out-source all those tasks but sometimes that’s not an option. Enter Freelance Folder’s 15 Applications No Online Business Can Live Without

As you’re already aware, this Wednesday was National Grammar Day. Here on WelshScribe I featured a guest post from Sean Platt but did you know I guest posted on the same topic for his site the Blogopolis Blueprint? I asked Is Focusing On Good Grammar Detrimental To Your Blog’s Health? A healthy debate ensued!

Finally for this week, Leo Babuta gives some great advice on How To Write Quality Posts When You Have a Day Job.
