VALU€ ISN’T ALWAYS CA$H
I recently broke my own rule and wrote something that I will not be paid for. I was reminded of the fact when I read the piece by Lora Bishop (What’s your Writing Worth?, WM, Oct).
Now I am no green beginner, willing to work for nothing just to see my work in print. On the contrary, I have written articles for a wide variety of local and national magazines for more than thirty years.
I have always been paid for my work. Even if it was just a cheque for a small filler piece. Sometimes this has meant chasing late payers, but I have had no qualms about doing this.
I am also a recovering alcoholic and my freebie article was written for Share, the magazine of Alcoholics Anonymous.
By passing on my own experiences, I hope to help my fellow recovering alcoholics. Even if only one person reads my piece and benefits from it, I will have achieved my aim.
