I’m starting free-lance work this week with a new company. Not sure if I can name names or not, so I won’t, but it cracks me up to report that I’ll be writing articles for a magazine to be distributed to young professionals in India.
Its kind of like reverse outsourcing. Isn’t that just the coolest?
Copywriting can be such a kick. Also an enormous pain but hey, I’m grateful for it.

Hi Charlotte:
I pay the bills as a technical writer, and as you probably know, the IT profession is packed with IT and business professionals from India. As you look for article ideas, be sure to keep this in mind. For example, I would think that you fill many columns with topics such as: current snapshot of Big Ten Tech companies, latest impact on Work VISAs by Homeland Security policies, and so on. Just making up a couple of topics, but you have a great audience, ready to read your stuff..I suspect.
By the way, congrats on great site.
Take care, Roy
