Lately I’ve been spending a lot of time writing blog posts for clients, and it’s been so much fun that I’m wondering why I didn’t get into ghostwriting before.
Of course, my name isn’t posted anywhere near those blogs, which means I don’t get a byline or any credit as the writer. But is that the only reason to write something fun and informative that you want others to read and share? Not as far as I’m concerned.
And hey, since I’m getting paid to do this ghostwriting, then who am I to quibble about the byline? I’m the ghost in the blog machine, and it’s just fine by me.

I’ve recently discovered that some articles I wrote years ago for the Sallie Mae job-seeker website TrueCareers are still posted online, along with some newer articles by other writers. This leads me to believe that one of two things is true: either I have a gift for writing articles that are timeless or the web content editor at TrueCareers has forgotten to clear out the old stuff. Either way, I am pleased to see my work still online and (hopefully) read occasionally–maybe even providing a bit of help from time to time.
I added a link to the career articles page at TrueCareers to the Client Sites section on this blog. The following are my articles, all accessible from that page:
* How Low Do You Go?
* Live to Work or Work to Live? That Is the Question.
* Focus Your Internet Resume to Get Attention
* How to Reduce On-the-Job Stress
* Corporate Trouble: Reading the Warning Signs
* Year-End Bonus? Bah! Humbug
