The Ten Commandments For An Online Writer - VII
Thou shalt not pass work to others without permission
A client might be giving you work because he likes the way you write, because he trusts you or because he knows he can count on you. You have an awful lot of work to finish off so you think: Why not, let me advertise on the Internet and give out some of it. I’ve always found it’s better to check with the client first. That way, he knows that you are outsourcing it and it won’t be a shock if he finds out. The virtual world is much smaller than you think – there are many professional freelance writers but you tend to bump into each other at some point of time in cyberspace. Ask if you can outsource it – many clients will be okay with that as long as you run your eye over it before sending it to him.
