Everyone compliments me on my handwriting. Can I make money writing for people?
Vermeer Remix Two

I hand-drafted for a landscape architecture firm for a few years, and have really spent my whole life messing with my handwriting. I can write like an architect, and my regular, writing myself notes handwriting is very unique. I'm wondering if there is a market for this skill, like illustrating children's books or something? and how do i get into it?


Contact some publishing companies -- they can set you on the "write" path.

You can also make money addressing invitations. You just need to get your information out that you do it.

Need help with a literary anaysis, and posted my question under books/authors without realizing...?
Head 6

A single mom back in college, I am a little overwhelmed this semester. Its the end, and I am struggling with, among others, writing a 7 pg analysis of The Best Way to Rob a Bank is to Own One; recreating a piece of art with a human element from our text book (and have no camera..); write a paper on the artistic architecture of a church and the origins, and-- *take an author we've read this semester (Conrad, Joyce, Sartre, Pirandhello, Borges, Beckett, Fugard) and write our own "original and informed analysis in essay form."

It should reference previous critical analyses, and refer to specific passages from the primary text (I assume what was in our textbook, like No Exit; Heart of Darkness; Six Charactes Searching for an Author; The Dead) with each reference properly cited in MLA.

He says "I recommend " starting in the library, as "specialized encyclo. and books offer more authoratative and interesting ideas than..the broad, general landscape of the web.."

Any ideas/help?


first step is to get organized,, you have 4 projects, get 4 of those inexpensive folders that have pockets and you can add paper to,,

set up a folder for each project
put whatever handouts your professor has given for each project, or jot down instructions etc, in each folder ,

this way, as you find information or start writing etc, you can place all of it in the correct folder,

what he means by going to the library, they will have recognized critics, whose reviews are generally acknowledged, as opposed to finding individual reviews on the net,,,,,, analaysis are often called reviews.
if you dont have a textbook that explains how to write an analyses, go to the student life section of your college, they will have a lab or tutors who can help you

    Has been the book to deal with by any serious quester after knowledge of the deep symbiotic relationship between those über-’Others’, Christianity and Atheism. As an unabashed utopian Marxist thinker philosopher, Bloch (1885 - 1977) eschews that ‘excess of hyper-rationalism or dogmatic materialism’ his more prosaic musular atheist stable mates generally bring to discussions of religion. In the words of Peter Thompson, Director of the Centre for Ernst Bloch Studies at the University of Sheffield, in his excellent Introduction to this long unavailable classic, ‘Ernst Bloch and the Quantum Mechanics of Hope’ (i – xxx, i):

    Bloch himself rubbed shoulders with that unique coterie of enlightened radical Marxists - Brecht, Adorno, Benjamin, for example. Perhaps we have the embryo of some such today in Eagleton, Badiou, Žižek, Habermas and others for whom religion-averse aggressive sorts of atheistic fundamentalism are as intellectually uncongenial as the ‘exclusively modern phenomenon’ (Habermas 2001: 10) of their religion counterparts. Marx’s own dialectical understanding of religiosity, captured well in his open-minded insight into ‘the opium of the masses, the heart of the heartless world’ pervades Bloch’s ‘detective work’, as he himself called it, on the emancipatory – for which, read ‘heretical’, a favourite Blochian trope – potential within Christianity. Bloch’s exegesis of the Bible is an insider’s hermeneutic, unlike that verstehen-free religion-cynical spleen of Hitchens, Dawkins, Gray and other high priests of resurgent Darwinism.

    Defining Landscape Architecture :: Land8 Magazine

    Tim Waterman studied landscape architecture in the US at the University of Idaho and went on to become of Master of Landscape Architecture at the Rhode Island School of Design. He now lives and works in London and lectures in landscape architecture and urbanism at the Writtle School of Design. With his new book, The Fundamentals of Landscape Architecture, he hopes to illuminate, “the meaning of the profession,” to the general public, young students looking for a career path, and professionals from other disciplines. This might be the perfect gift for those people that continually fail to understand what it is a landscape architect really does. (No more questions about pruning roses or mowing lawns!) In this interview, Tim and I traded a few emails to talk about his new book.

    AS: Can you tell me a little background? TW: The Fundamentals of Landscape Architecture, came about because of a clear need for a concise introduction to landscape architecture. While there is no dearth of marvelous books about landscape, for a long time there has been nothing that has been comprehensive and aimed at a general market. Landscape architects spend much time complaining that the profession remains undefined, and hopefully the book sheds some light on the meaning of the profession.
