Taking this writing thing seriously.

This morning, I realized that if I wanted to take this writing thing seriously since it's one of the most convenient jobs ever - and not to mention I love doing it and blabbering on even if nobody's listening/reading/giving a damn - I had to sell myself like other businesses do. Apart from asking friends to recommend me to people they know, I thought I needed to produce business cards, too, so that people I do not know and have no connection to will hear of my services.

Here are some designs I made in Phoster (I don't know how to use Adobe Photoshop, okay?). Which one should I go with?



I know, I know. The landscape ones aren't the actual business card size but I had to make do with what Phoster has. And I don't know how to remove the icons at the bottom of the pink design so just pretend it's not there.

I wanted a clean, fuss-free card so I ended up with these three designs/templates. Personally like the pink and the last one though I don't know why I put an ampersand there.

I'm also thinking of removing the URL of my blog in the contact details because to be honest, this isn't a place where they can find something that can actually help them with any problem they're having, since that's what blog apparently is for now.

So, what do you think?

    Something I should be doing as a blogger but not because, well, I'm not freelance: make a portfolio site (like what Ariane does) and link to that.

    Prefer the third business card, but not the use of Georgia. Hehe.

      That's good, too, but I'm a pretty boring person. I am not interested in stuff that other people will be interested in but I do write blogs for other people. Parang guest blogging.

      And what font would you recommend? Wala akong alam na ibang font na maganda apart from Georgia. Hihi. :))

      Font? I'm currently into Futura. But that's very modern. May magagandang serif font naman na easily available sa Windows. Try Sylfaen.
