In Defense of the Charticle

Today several writers on an email list I frequent were buzzing about the charticle, which is basically a hybrid of an article and an illustration. They said it wasn't real writing and that it's bad for writers, because it means fewer words (and hence a lower pay scale).

Au contraire, my freelance friends.

On Authority: The Blogosphere/Real World Divide

Ashley Ambirge

Treat Learning as a Process, Not an Event (1 of 2)

Amy Lewis

As with baking a cake, if all you focus on is mixing the ingredients, you are likely to be disappointed with the end result. Oven temperature and cooking time are also essential elements that if overlooked will sub-optimize the results.

Planting the Seeds

Milena Thomas

I have not given up the idea of getting goats and chickens either. It's just that starting an urban farm takes a somewhat substantial capital investment, and getting appropriate housing set up for the animals is crucial - not only for their happiness, but to comply with city zoning codes and whatnot.

You Aren’t Going To Change The World And That’s Okay

J. Maureen Henderson

Not all of us are meant to change the world and live capital L lives. There’s only so much paradigm-shifting talent, opportunity and luck available and you’re not a failure just because you didn’t receive what you believe was your generationally-mandated portion of the above, although it’s easy to see why you might feel that way.

Reverse Ageism

Ashley Nicole

Entry-level employees are typically in their early twenties, and fresh out of college. Right now, that makes them proud members of Generation Y. Before I go on I would like to go ahead and get some of the stereotypes attached to our generation out of the way.

Round Three or Not Round Three: Part One

Scott Shrum

This is the time of year when, every time the phone rings here at Veritas Prep HQ, there's a good chance it's an applicant calling to ask us if he should apply to business school in the third admissions round, or if he should wait until next year. The answer, as is the answer for most things in life, is "It depends."

It’s Just Not Personal Branding Without Your Own Domain

Becky Leung

There has been a great deal written about how to engage with social media to establish a name for yourself online, but a commonly overlooked piece of the puzzle is also one of the simplest: owning your own domain name. A domain name complements the rest of your online presence through branding using yourname.com or a similar variation.
