Freelance writers will do well to remember two important points
The ups and downs of freelance writing As I write this I am aware of four platforms where freelance writers are giving their talent at this time. They are Vocal Media, NewsBreak Contributor Platform, Medium, and Hubpages. As artists who share our craft with the world, we all desire exposure and to be duly compensated for our time and effort but this does not always happen.

History of New Year’s Ev
New Year’s Eve is the last day of the year, according to the Gregorian Calendar, and is known as Old Year’s Day or St. Sylvester’s Day. You may remember reading that Emperor Constantine was considered the first “Christian” Roman Emperor. St. Sylvester is responsible for Constantine’s conversion in the 4th century.

The OG "Nepo Babies". Created with: OG Collection.
On December 19 Vulture published a collection of stories about “The Year of the Nepo Baby.” The very on-the-internet term has been used to discuss the current rise of celebrities’ children in the entertainment industry, where an actor who emerges from obscurity seems to be the exception and not the rule.

History of Auld Lang Syne
Why do we sing “Auld Lang Syne” each New Year’s Eve, but do we know what it means? The song contains words from a language that few are familiar with, in a syntax that is confusing to most, and is from a poem about friends recalling adventures they had long ago but had nothing to do with New Year’s Eve.
