Writing as a Habit


Writers and authors are dependent on big breaks to make some form of income, as well as to sustain a living. However, in the in-between times, a number of “gigs” are available to fill the daily pot of expenditure, especially if one is waiting for that big break. This depends on what you, as a writer, can contribute. A number of places are available to write for, but these places are a slog and you need to really work hard to earn a small amount. There are those who do offer higher salaries, though. One such place, where you are able to earn a reasonable amount, is Writerbay. This is where you can apply your own academic expertise, and become more proficient in your own writing as well.

Each writer should have one or more specialization subjects or courses. This makes it easy to write even though you need to use the prescribed books. As the assignments are academic, the writers are also given a salary on a sliding scale. This means that the salary depends on your own qualification level. The assignments are assigned to the writer once they have made an application, indicating that they would like to work on a specific paper. Depending on the settings of the writer, the work would be assigned within the writer’s expertise. The writers are able to set their own working hours, such as being available 24/7 or lesser hours.


Most of these sites offer services to students to have their essays written for them. These students come from non-English backgrounds, and are, therefore, not fluent in English. What this means, too, is that the student might be able to speak the language, but cannot necessarily think or analyze at a deeper level in English. The writer at Writerbay would assist them with their essays for exam purposes. Some people do question the ethics of this methodology, but it is the only way that students from foreign language backgrounds can obtain a degree at a Western university. As mentioned already, the student has to study and understand the written essay in order for them to complete the exam paper.   

Once the writer is given access to the “Available Orders” list, the writer can choose the assignment, and start writing. However, it still depends on the administrators whether they would assign the order to the writer in question. The writer is given specific time periods in which to complete the assignment. The longest time-period is eleven days. The shortest periods can always be negotiated to a longer period, if the time allows. The shorter periods can be from as little as thirty minutes.

The most important aspect of Writerbay is that the work has to be academic. This group allows you to write as much as you can, and allows you to choose what you would like to write about. Even though your expertise does not lie within the requirement for a particular order, you could still apply and write from general knowledge, but with the seriousness of academic writing and the right sources. That means that the language is formal, and all various paper formats, and referencing styles apply. However, they have recently opened up an opportunity for blogging. Hence, should you do have your own blog, you would be able to write blogs for them too, and make some money there too. Any person who enjoys writing will find ways and means to write and keep busy at writing. Writing for groups are an important aspect, as it teaches you to write for various types of people, as well as various modes of writing.



The main focus is on writing. It teaches you to sit down and complete pieces of work within a particular period. It will finally train you for when you want to do you own writing. It teaches you the discipline to sit, write, and complete tasks. When you finally write for yourself, you are able to set your own timelines and goals. Most writer groups have their own rules, and you will have to pop in at this group (Writerbay), ask the right questions, and see what they have to offer. Visit the website, as they are an online group.

Under the Sea

Under the Sea

The subaquatic world is a place that has been exclusive for a very long time. The possibility for anyone to dive into the deep blue sea is there. Many people have been excluded as a result of the lack of exposure. It is, therefore, a matter of getting to know what scuba diving is about, and that would help in spreading the popularity of the sport.

The question is: Why would you want to go down into the ocean? There are thousands of reasons. Some of these are:
  • To see that life that you would not see otherwise. Seeing the inhabitants of the sea is not the same down below as it is in an aquarium.
  • You would not only see these creatures, but you would have an intimate experience with them.
  • You would be exposed to extraordinary things at every point in the various dives you could do. Take, for example, this incredible experience a diver experienced on one of his dives:

Furthermore, your experiences could take you to another level of your diving, such as an interest in the various jobs you could do underwater. The book: A General Guide to Scuba Diving will give you some insight into what you might expect from such an experience. You will never look at diving in the same way.

It is an expensive hobby, but as a job, you will be given your full gear in which to work. Even as a hobby, you could still rent your scuba gear, until you are able to afford your own. It is important, though, that you start somewhere.

The Necessity of Bookbinding


The Necessity of Bookbinding



Against all the odds, books still have a great purpose in the world. Even if it is painful to see many trees dying, because of the paper mills, there is still the need for us to have books. It should be the desire for all to use recycled paper. There are also many alternatives to creating paper for the purpose of printing books.

The Text for Writing

Most of us have, at some point or another, made use of a diary to record the daily events – whether these were the struggles or the mountaintops. Writing has the ability to take you away from the reality of you surroundings. More so, it gives you the ability to make sense of what is going on in and around you.

No matter what the reason is for writing, it is a matter of getting something productive going. Whether you are writing a report, an essay, a diary entry, or a massive project such as a book, it is a definite step away from who you are in the moment.

The Ode to Writing


Since the beginning of time, Man has felt the need to record the happening of life in some way. It started with depictions on the cave walls, where people recorded the hunt of the day. They often recorded the victorious celebration of the hunt.


Following this method was the introduction of the clay tablets and the hieroglyphs. The meaning of words came about through the images and “drawings” they created. The images used in a particular sequence would represent a message.
