Poetry writing is the subject exclusively for the persons having some poetic soul and moods. It is believed that poets are whimsical minded and mostly live in the superficial moods creating some poetic verses. However, following are some tips that may perhaps enable the intended poetry writers to develop their hobby in systematic manner:
- Pay attention to the world around you i.e. all the things surrounding you, people, animals, structures, events, just anything whatever you see, hear, taste, smell or feel
- Listen to the words or dialogues, the music around, the difference between the music of poetry and music of songs

- Read all the poetries you have and think which one you like and why
- Read loudly whatever you write, how does it sound and how could you better it
- Ask yourself whether the poem have to rhyme or would it be better if not; but if you think it should rhyme then what rhyme would be better, analyze thoroughly
- Try to write phony poems and avoid using big words or extra words just because you think that it should be there
- The title should be catchy and attractive usually telling what the poem is all about, the title could also be a line from the poem itself
- Before writing the poem, think what message you want to express through the poem
- Try going wild yet funny, serious at times and just write whatever you want to by using your imaginations to the best through your own style of seeing the world.

Free lancing is a type of profession without any long-term commitment to any single employer. Free lancing term was initiated by Sir Walter Scott in his well known historical romance Ivanhoe for describing the medieval mercenary warrior. The phrase in due course evolved as figurative noun around the 1860s and ultimately it was formally recognized as a verb by 1903 by various authorities in etymology like Oxford English Directory. However, in the current times the term has morphed from the noun like freelance or freelancer into different verbs like journalist who freelances or adverb as he worked freelance.
Freelancers are usually found enjoying wider variety of assignments as compared to the regular employment and almost always enjoy more freedom in choosing their working schedules. Their experience too permits the chances of building up the portfolio of work and cultivates the network of clients in hopes of obtaining the permanent position. Freelancing could be viewed as either above or below the social system from the cultural point of views. Many Americans and most of the
Europeans evaluate freelancing as the socially prominent occupation, by maintaining with Scott’s basic denomination.
However, various Asian countries are found to follow Hormung by holding lower regards for the freelancers and mostly associate the practice with personal failure or inability of finding suitable work with the major employer and even criminality. Often a freelancer is found working with one or more freelancers and/or vendors forming the virtual agency for serving the specific client’s requirements for short-term or permanent work project.
