What's new this Week in the Midnight Writer's Network?

It's been a busy month for us at Mountain Spirit Productions with our internet work and in building our blog freelance writing network. Cephas and I are building this business together while we travel and work on our peace projects, our ministry, a novel and plans to travel abroad. So it always amazes us when we are able to maintain this vast blog network and make progress in its development while we keep up with our busy lives. The biggest news is that we added quite a few new blogs that are in various stages of pre-launch. We realized that there are many popular niches that we've virtually not even tapped. So I give you the brief introduction with the promise to write a full detailed post about each blog as I develop the themes and get some good content posted. For now, here is a list of...

The Midnight Writer's Network

This is the centralized panel for our freelance writing network. It's been a long arduous road getting these blogs to a state of completion. There is a lot of work yet to be done. I wanted to share this site in case you haven't seen it yet and to let you know that we have great things in store for this blog. Eventually, we want it to serve as a freelance writing/blogging portal for other writers who share the professional vision that Cephas and I share together. It's an exciting project so let me tell you more about ...

The Seven Thunders Prophetic Writings Launched

Since 1998, inspired and prophetic writings given by the power of the Holy Spirit of God have been kept safe on a free website. I have longed to publish them on a blog with a domain name so they can be actively shared. Now comparisons to ancient prophecy and modern day events can be made by a wide audience, which is why these writings were given. That dream came to fruition today. Thank G...

Twitter Files Info

Nine months ago in a blog creation frenzy, I created yet another blog titled Twitter Files Info. It's a subdomain of my blog The Twitter Files so it has an odd url. Just bookmark the link so you won't have to remember how to type it in each time. That will make it easy for you. Back to the topic of my unknown blog Twitter Files Info. .... Like so many blogs created in a passionate stormy love for creating, this blog never made it to the launch pad. In fact, it fared worse than many of my inspired projects because I have too many projects and not enough time or proper planning to use the time that I have. You are hearing about this site probably for the first time. It doesn't even have one post on it yet so you will be the first to see this...

Midnight Writer's Herbal Remedies

Before I became a professional blogger, I spent many years traveling and exploring mountains and wild lands to learn about natural foods and medicines. During the summer months, my husband Cephas and I still attend the annual gathering of the tribes of the rainbow family of living light to teach and share our love for natural healing. I am dedicating this blog to those long years of growth, learning, healing and loving my fellow humanity. At this time, the blog doesn't have many posts but there are a few articles of interest about herbs and wild plants. View some of the videos that I recorded last year in Oregon at one of our favorite wild remote retreats. We give you a tour of the path to the seasonal water fall that comes down from the...

Spring Fever has amped up my Blog Improvement Drive

The other day I counted my blogs that have domain names located within my personal freelance writing network. I have 50 professional blogs. Total. How many are up to the standards that I've set for them? Probably 10 or less. It's time to turn my spring fever towards a passion for renewal in my entire blog network, so that is what I'm doing now. You may have already seen dozens of major changes in my blogs from a face lift with a new theme or a blog domain name. Now that all those are set up to my satisfaction, I am concentrating on blog content. This is the fun part of running your own freelance blogging business! I choose to use original content written mostly by "yours truly" so let's roll up our sleeves and get busy. Let me recap some of the newer blogs for you just to make the reference...

My Blog needs its own Business Card

It makes sense to me that if brick and mortar companies benefit from utilizing business cards to generate business, then a blogging or freelance writing business would, too. I had this great idea about designing a brand logo for my freelance writing network. Then I thought about the unique blog niches in my network and wondered how to present each one on alternate cards. It would be like creating a rotating image on a flash sign or a different photo on a website. I'd have the layout for my freelance company as the main theme. Then I'd take photos of my blogs and alternate the images with a small description of each one on sets of business cards. I know that sounds like a lot of work but it's a good idea, isn't it? That presents one more problem for me though. If I create such an intricate...

Day Blog Planner

Blog Day Planner is such a popular blog nowadays, I decided to create a companion site for it. Meet Day Blog Planner. While the first blog focuses on organization, creation and maintenance techniques for professional bloggers, the companion site will turn its attention to life in general with a hint of freelance writing in the mix. As you can clearly see, the personalities of these blogs is very different. The themes are as unique as the niche and content of these sites. But I intend to use them as the melody and chorus in synchronization of a greater symphony. I hope you enjoy the melding of these blog life stag...

Today's Society Depends on Electronic Games for Entertainment

Our world has evolved into a technologically dependent culture and electronic games have permeated daily life in a way that defies class or culture. People of all ages today play games on some sort of electronic device as part of routine. Since the invention of the computer and cell phones with text message, society depends on those electronic devices for communication, organization and for entertainment. It seems to me that people have forgotten how to relax and just think. Instead, we grab a mini electronic device at every opportunity just to press little buttons in hopes of beating some computer generated odds. Games are the most common pastime today. Since so much time is spent stimulating the brain with these devices, funbrain is one place to visit online where you can choose many types...

In Post Links is the New Address for Pay Per Post

Pay Per Post spent several months rebuilding the new PPV4 Alpha while it still ran the old Beta 3 platform. I belonged to both during the transition time but PPP Beta 3 was my first love. I wrote quite a few posts for them. PPP v4 Alpha came on the scene and I was instantly enamored. As soon as the announcement came out about its launch, I signed up for an account. Within the first week I was blogging for them while still maintaining an active blogging status at PPP Beta 3. Then one day, Beta 3 vanished and I thought it was gone for good. Just today, I logged onto V4 Alpha to check for current assignments when I saw the notice "looking for the old Pay Per Post?" So I clicked it to a delightful discovery. My old friend is alive and well with...

The Twitter Files

When I first envisioned The Twitter Files, I was filled with ideas and the passion to set it up with all the content guidelines. I planned to write a couple dozen posts and then hold this big splash launch on Twitter, Facebook and everywhere. Then, the snows of winter started early...we left our house for good in Pennsylvania and headed for California where we've been traveling and living in our van. So, I fell behind. Don't worry though, I'm getting ready to make it up to you. What is The Twitter Files all about? It's everything twitter....the latest buzz...the most tweeted topics and responses.....famous tweeters....the xfiles.....how twitter is used as a social network and a business tool....to name just a few key topics of discussion...

I Added this Site to Social Spark Today

It has been my intention since I joined Social Spark in 2008, to submit 40 blogs. When my Race in The Midnight Writer's Freelance Request began two years ago, that number was my ultimate goal. I wanted to have 40 blogs with domain names and unique styles and content. Recently, I reached that goal so now I am tweaking the content, the widgets and increasing frequency of posts. Today, I began adding this massive list of blogs to Social Spark. Since this is my Grand Central Station for  all my blogs in the network, it only made sense to get this one listed. I'm surprised that I haven't done it sooner. I guess I'm really getting in the groove now so watch these computer keys smoke as I get it all together to focus the freelance blogging writing network of my dreams. I hope Social Spark approves...
