					<description><![CDATA[In the more than 17 years All Freelance Writing has been around, I've often shared my New Year's resolutions, goals, and plans with you. Some years are successes. Some years go far off-track. And most are a mixed bag. But this year, I'm doing something a little bit different: exploring goals vs focus areas.

					<description><![CDATA[Will they, or won’t they? That’s the question many writers and publishers face right now—whether or not they’re willing to publish AI content or use AI tools in their businesses. They have legal and ethical AI concerns. And that's fair. Are there ways to engage in ethical AI use in your freelance writing business? Absolutely. But to do that, you first have to be aware]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[If you’ve followed developments around freelance writing, blogging, SEO, or technology in general in recent months, you’re aware of “generative AI.” In particular, you’ve heard about—and might have tried—an AI content tool called ChatGPT. And if you’re like many of our fellow freelance writers, you might have some concerns. Namely, is ChatGPT a threat to your freelance writing business? We’ll get to that.

					<description><![CDATA[&#160; March 10, 2021 - UPDATE: The PRO Act passed the U.S. House of Representatives and will make its way to the Senate. The act previously failed in the Senate, and this is the most likely time we could see amendments to remove the freelance-career-killing ABC test.

One topic that came up in our conversation was professional ethics and some of the problematic behavior we’ve seen in the writing community in recent years.
