ASJA members are almost all freelancers, and they enjoyed it, so I think it’d be fun for your readers.

Feel free to pass the word if you like – link, embed whatever you prefer.

I’ve been writing my own irreverent parenting blog Three Peas in a Pod (three-peas-in-a-pod.blogspot.com) for two and a half years, and I’m proud that I’ve managed to keep that up. This year, I also launched a second blog Jennifer Larson, Writer at Large (jenniferlarsonwrites.wordpress.com) to write more about writing in general, journalism, current events and other random musings. I’m trying to make that more of a professional venture, given that I list a number of my writing clips from my past on it, too. And I also joined a blogging team that produces a blog called Go Get Your Jacket (gogetyourjacket.com) that we subtitled “a blog about begetting and spending.” In other words, GGYJ allows us to discuss what we buy for our children and why we buy it, as well as our thoughts on products aimed at children and parents in general.
So that makes three blogs I’m writing for. I’ve got a solid base of clips from previous freelance jobs and from my full-time writing jobs in the past, but as the economy started to shudder to a halt, I found myself casting about for more work. I’m hoping that things start to turn around. So I hope to land some more (paying) freelance work in 2009, and I hope that perhaps at least one of my blogs will help me do that.

I’ve really enjoyed refining my writing style since the ‘early days’ and am most proud of posts like Do What You Love…And Share It With Your Child, Why Travel So Far, When Do You Retire When You Are Doing What You Love? as well as travel dispatches from Peru and Nepal.

And if you’re looking for daily photography inspiration, I host a Photo of the Day feed via RSS/ATOM or email. Come on over, check out all the fun and subscribe to join in the next adventure!
