I woke up to articles in my queue – YAY!! Or is it? These were article topics that were in my niche, and good paying too. I was excited. If you’re in freelancing right now, you know it’s tough. A lot of freelancers have left the industry and gone back to whatever they were doing prior to becoming a freelance writer. I’ve managed to hang in there, but it’s still pretty hairy. And honestly, even I was looking for a part time job a few months ago to try and get one or two days in a week at any retail establishment within walking distance. No one is hiring, and if you’ve been looking for a job, you probably know that too. But let’s dig into why AI checkers are complete bullshit.

Als freiberuflicher Autor ist es immer wichtig, für Ihr Publikum zu schreiben. Deshalb müssen Sie sich fragen:
Welche Sprache sprechen sie?
Oh, wait, could you not read that? Being an English-language author in an English-speaking country with an English domain, selling English-language fiction books, it’s unlikely much, if any, of my audience is German! Although, I do have two or three fans that do speak German, and I’ve studied enough of the language to know enough to get by. I certainly can’t hold any deep meaningful conversations in German, and I can’t write it well enough to translate my books into German. The latter is a disappointment after studying German for six years, but anyway….
This article isn't to bash other languages. I know English, German, Latin and I started studying Russian as a challenge. This is about knowing your audience so that you attract and keep the right people on your website.

I get asked about 4 times a week if I know where there’s any work for freelance writers. The truth is that the last year has been awful, and I’ve said more about AI on the fiction side than the freelancing side over the last year. For authors, AI is great. For freelancers, AI is terrible. It’s completely decimated the industry, and there is very little to no work. If you’re thinking about becoming a freelance writer, this isn’t 2008, 2009, 2010. The work has all but been gutted. I can’t even recommend it anywhere because I haven’t seen any work. Anywhere. There is no significant amount of work anywhere.
