Why isn’t information for free anymore?

I’m sure you’ve been faced with the same problem I’ve had and it frustrates me to no end… You need some information on a topic– say writing, and you have no time to go to the library or to the local Borders, so what do you do? You go on the net and start to surf. I go up to the search engine box and type in what I need, like writing fiction, and hit search. And what do I get? A ton of stuff on the subject that I might want to buy. I’m not trying to wine, but what happened to information or advice being free? Did it get lost in the generations changing hands and no one told me about it? And I remember someone saying once that the best advice is free– so what happened to that?

Well, in answer to my frustrations, I have decided to make a blog up solely for free information on writing. I want to give writers a safe haven to come and find a view on writing.  As well as how I write certain genres like poetry (what I’m best known for) or fiction, and also, to discuss other tidbits of information.  Like creating a title for your work, to where to market yourself as a writer on the net.

So sit back, relax with a cup of joe, and let’s chat!
