You can choose several topics (preferably from different areas: tourism, construction, medicine, design, psychology) and write small articles on them to demonstrate your author's style. It is not necessary to quote famous philosophers and writers in your works. The main criterion of the text is readability. The article should be unique and the topic “catchy”.

For stable work, it is important to "like" at least three or four customers. Standing orders will allow you to move your income from “additional” status to “main” status.
