Internet Writer Must-Haves

1. 24/7 Internet Connection. Internet is your lifeline so make sure you are connected to it all the time. You will be able to get good contracts if you visit the sites often. You will be able to do research without time constraint. And, having a 24/7 internet connection plan is cheaper.

2. Multi-coated Glasses. You will be facing the computer for long periods of time. If you don't have eye problems already, I am sure that after a month you will. Using multi coated glasses wil reduce the stress your eyes gets.

3. Coffee. Coffee to wake you up after a two-hour sleep. Coffee to last you till the wee hours. And [the aroma of] coffee to help you relax. Cheers to NESCAFE!

4. Vitamins. Drink your daily doze of vitamins. Working for long hours can be stressful. Although you may not feel the stress immmediately, when they do it may interfere with your work schedule. [Migraines can be very painful.] Vitamins B, C and Iron will equip you for the long hours of work. But do get a breather every once in a while. Don't corrupt your resouces.

5. Penguin Guide to Punctuation. Penguin Dictionary of Grammar. And, Penguin Guide to Plain English. I need not expain!

Well, there you have it! All you need to write for the internet.
