Here’s what this AC rockstar has to share with her fans and AC Contributors:
SK: How long did it take you to become an AC addict?
AF: I was hooked right from the start.
SK: Why have you stuck with AC for so long?
AF: AC allows me to write on just about any subject. The site is easy to maneuver and I love getting paid for my articles.
SK: Out of all of the topics you write about, how do you decide which ones to develop or focus on in any given month?
AF: What I write about depends on a lot of things. The seasons inspire me to write timely articles pertaining to each one. Holidays or any upcoming event can also get me thinking of writing an article. I do crafting, gardening and love to quilt, which provide great topics to write about. I might write my thoughts on a hot political topic or a personal issue that affected me in some way.
SK: If you could start your AC writing career over again, what is the one thing you would do differently?
AF: I would research more on how to write my articles to be more searchable on the internet. I would not rush and would profread for errors more.
SK: Do you use any social media tools to promote your content? If so, which ones?
AF: I use FaceBook to promote my articles. I work full time and do not have time for much more than that. I have printed cards with my AC url on it and pass them out to people at various venues.
