Welcome to another rousing tour of what the blogosphere has to offer. I’ve gathered an eclectic collection of blog posts that I hope are of interest to Beyond the Rhetoric readers.

If you want to be featured in a future edition of What’s Up Wednesdays, I highly recommend that you follow me on Twitter. It pays to follow, because I do make a call for posts every week.

Chris Bibey is a highly successful freelance writer and he really enjoys what he does for a living. I can certainly appreciate that sentiment. In one of his recent posts, Chris explains why freelance writing is fun. It’s not all about the money (but it helps).

The Dough Roller might not be rolling in quite as much dough these days, so that’s why he (?) turned to his readers to find 97 painless ways to save money. Tip #18? Breastfeed. Once again, boobs are saving the world (and your wallet).

Mostly Lisa prides herself in being somewhat of a shutterbug, so she knows a thing or two about turning blah into beautiful. Even though I don’t own a DSLR, I really dig using the super macro mode on my Canon S3 IS. Perspective is everything.

John Bardinelli usually talks about video games, particularly those from the casual market, but he also happens to be a professional freelance writer like me. As such, he does have some interest in the the top ten most irritating phrases, as described by Oxford. Looks like some of these could serve as fodder for future Grammar 101 articles.

Tyler Ingram takes a look outside his Vancouver window to see that, yes, it is indeed raining. Again. He also happens to a have a holiday-themed Starbucks cup in his hand, so that’s how he knows that the holiday season is upon us. Santa Claus can’t be far behind. Ho ho ho!
