Hi There - I'm Danielle McGaw
I'm a freelance writer and a social media manager - thus, The Social Freelance Writer!
I started playing around with the whole idea of making money online when I got my first computer. I remember being so excited about the potential of it all. But it wasn't until later that I realized that I could make money from writing.
I started off writing whatever I could but over the years I have found that I mostly enjoy writing blog posts on the topics of blogging, social media, careers, and education. These are my chosen specialties but I also write about real estate, anxiety and panic disorder, and movie reviews. Of course, in the 8 years that I've been a freelance writer I've written about many more things, too!
Social media is my big passion - specifically Facebook and Twitter. I am the social media manager for a major Canadian busienss college and I love interacting with people on my own social networks. Some writers do not realize how big of an impact social media can have on their careers. I believe it is thanks to my use of social media that I have never been dependant on content mills to make a living. Most of my work now comes from my connections on Facebook andn Twitter and from personal recommendations from clients.

I am on Squidoo Jewelsofawe but I don't do well over there. LOL
Nice to meet you! I am also 41. Are you on Squidoo also?
Nice to meet you here. I'll follow your new posts.
LOL - you make time for the important things in life freedomw! Like Farmville and Cityville. Seriously though - I only check my farm once a day and my city only gets check 3 or 4 times. On my main account that is. The other accounts are just so I can send myself presents. Oh wait - that's weird, huh? I'm only kidding. One account, check city and farm once a day. The rest of it is work, work, work. My boss is a slave driver. Oh, wait - I'm the boss. Ok - boss is a nice lady but her expectations are kind of high. :)
Nice to meet you to Sheila!
