New here - Anyone had any luck as a writer?

Oh-hohohoho... but just in the previous page, you were so eager to do so:


What changed? Oh yeah.... you got your a** kicked twice over (again!).

You posted two silly statements in the previous page of this same thread. I pointed out that in both cases, you were WRONG. Finding your position indefensible, you quickly reverted back to your old tactic of just posting worthless insults to bury the page where you were humiliated. That's the same tactic that you've used in ALL OF THE TIMES that I've kicked your sorry a**. ^____^

It's a hopeless tactic, WB. I'll always be here to remind everyone about your stupidity. Unlike your empty insults, I actually have your own posts to back up my claims about your absurdly low intelligence quotient.

EW_nutjob (Margaret / johnny_outsmart):

In case you haven't noticed, nobody cares about you or your insane posts. Everyone knows that you've been especially pissy and out-of-control since I personally exposed you for the vile piece of lying, impersonating, human feces that I've always known you to be. As much as you obviously disagree, this forum isn't about YOU or your personal agenda. People want and appreciate the valuable information that I provide about-of all things-essay scams. Your very existence is irrelevant.

Keep up the good work, nutcase.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Wow.. is that why you've not responded to any of my posts in this thread? ROFLMAO!!!

Like I said, unlike your empty insults, I actually have your own posts to back up my claims about your absurdly low intelligence quotient. Your post above simply confirms this.

Now, feel free to add another of your grossly unsubstantiated posts to this thread in order to further your agenda of burying your latest bouts of utter stupidity. I have to get back to work.

The new year for academic essay writers

Well, I guess the high season will be kicking in before long. Here's hoping to another good year. Thank you to everyone who answered my many questions (asked mostly under my previous name, srandrews) and contributed to thoughtful threads on the model essay industry. I have enjoyed talking with other writers, both on-forum and off. I owe particular gratitude to freelancewriter, who has patiently answered my questions and been generous with advice as I've started in this business. It is a competitive industry and this is an acrimonious board, but I believe that as writers we benefit from treating each other as colleagues, not adversaries.

Best of luck to everyone in 2013!

much love

We're getting Kumbaya going later. I might even break out my ukelele ...

No problem. As I've said before, legitimate honest writers can compete against one another fairly and honorably and they can simultaneously try to help out their existing and prospective cutomers find other trustworthy writers for any work they can't take or don't want. It's only the real low-lifes in this industry that have to resort to attacking other writers and to falsely discrediting them to "compete."

Wishing everyone a prosperous new year...

in the light of the new year and these posts i m keen to know what you found out (although its probably against the rules) i came here expecting answers and only found more questions...

if only my discrediting were false, you'd be getting somewhere.

I mean, what's false about this, FW-- you're an ex government hack lawyer writer wannabe who churns out unsigned copy for term paper mills doing kids' homework for them, and brags inordinately about your (egregious) "writing skills" to snag confused students on an anti-scam site, thus turning them into customers. can you point me towards what is false about any of this, you ambulance-chasing moron?

You can type whatever you like about him. At least he's not hypocritically working in an industry that he claims is dirty. You're a joke.

Everything is false about that. The truth is that I just earn an honest living as a writer. I have a very good reputation for providing high-quality work and for being very careful to decline any projects that I can't do well. I have maintained a mutually respectful and cooperative relationship with all of my legitimate and honest competitors. To most sane people, the fact that I happen to have a law degree and that I previously worked as a senior writer for a very large U.S. federal agency is a good thing, not a bad thing. Unlike you, I've never "bragged" about how good my writing is or about anything else. Ironically, you're the only one here who's ever announced how successful an "author" you are, how big your house is, and how you don't really need to work in this industry. Finally, anybody reading any thread in which we both post can freely determine how good or bad a writer you and I are, how much sense we make in our respective posts, and which one of us is the consummate hypocrite. Your realizing that probably goes a long way toward explaining your hatred of me and that of you barely-English-speaking friend who has failed in approximately 1,200 attempts to ever type out a single complete, coherent, grammatically correct sentence on this forum.

Here's to that and a happy new year to all. Unfortunately it seems the bickering is set to continue regardless!

All in the interest of fair play my friend. Note that nobody actually applies that rule, most of the time. We are not supposed to mention the names of companies because all of the comments and scandalizing remarks at this forum are just that, unproven and with questionable evidence at best. Remember that not everything you see on the internet is real. That includes the information people post openly about other companies and writers. There is nothing fishy about that. I consider it protecting the other party's privacy. Nothing more, nothing less.

I registered on a few freelancing websites and got 1 project so far. Hope to get some more in the near future.

Signing up at writing websites are no longer the best way to get employed in this business. Anybody interested in an academic writing career can very well just sign up at other employment websites where clients can directly contact the writer and discuss the project, terms, and payment schedules. Yes, drawing up a unique refund policy for the project can also be done at these sites. I have heard that some writers do achieve a far more regular income using the project sites and they earn far more than they would have earned at a writing company. It is a bit difficult to get projects there though since the clients look for evidence of relevant education and professional experience (whenever possible) so writer's who are looking for a break should not go for the technical and high priced projects at once. Establish a profile first using simple and low cost projects. Afterall, it is the regularity of the work that will dictate the income, so more low priced projects can eventually bring in more income than single high priced projects.
