Arizona Freelance WritersWe specialize in writing agricultural, historical, metaphysical, social and political articlesFeaturing America's premier metaphysician A.O. Kime... "the writer mastering the spiritual perspective"
If you're looking for a freelance writer, one really creative, then you've come to the right place. Perhaps you already know what you're looking for though... maybe it's a certain style. Or perhaps it's a particular 'wittiness' you seek, a perceptiveness. Those are important of course but you should know there is something else rarely mentioned which makes a writer truly creative while still encompassing the aforementioned three (style, wit and perceptiveness). It is to incorporate the spiritual dimension. However 'spiritual' doesn't necessarily mean 'religious' but rather, in our case, metaphysical. In effect, it means writing as a philosopher might but with a spiritual perspective... as if an expression of the soul. After all, the soul speaks of deeper truths... doesn't it? It also means dispensing with the 'herd mentality'. Taking the spiritual dimension into account isn't something which can be taught however. Therefore... A.O. Kime does not offer any recognizable 'brand' of creative writing but has his own style instead. We think you'll appreciate his works... see articles by A.O. Kime A brief insight into A.O. Kime
Aside from writing 50 plus abstracts on metaphysics, A.O. Kime has been a freelance writer since 1997 of contributing articles and the author of two books STD LEX and Metaphysical Cavemen. He has also written numerous articles on agriculture, politics, social issues and ancient history. For more details on his background... see About the Author While A.O. Kime is not a news reporter and only seldom comments directly on any specific news story, within his articles he does often factor-in news events from around the world, historical events as well. Each would be, after all, the background. Human events are the ingredients which makeup the essence of civilization, we all know, and since the peculiarities of man are often metaphysical, they become dimensional... perfectly suited for A.O. Kime. A.O. Kime is more than a creative writer though... he is a world-class philosopher, and in the opinion of those who know his works even better, a metaphysician. While actually both, one must also include 'patriot'... as he continually espouses Americana.

The Dilemma for Freelance Writers (an A.O. Kime commentary)One thing seems certain, the collective mind-set of societies evolve. Perhaps more descriptive is their idiosyncrasies swing like a pendulum. As that may apply to mainstream journalism today, in whatever form, be it newspapers, television or magazine, the integrity of journalism is being influenced by a fairly recent phenomenon which has grown to be very powerful... it's called 'political correctness'. And what is construed to be politically correct supposedly reflects the collective mindset of society. Yes, I said 'supposedly'. As a result, but for a handful of journalists, so far removed is bluntness (honesty) in news reporting today, this pendulum is surely in its apogee. This could be good news however... because insisting the trend must soon reverse is the bullish-consensus theory. The matter of what is politically correct 'officially', and what is socially-acceptable generally, is fast becoming one-in-the-same... but manipulatively. While it is not executive mandates or monarchial decrees we often fear, archaic forms of governance having been tossed aside largely, but what is considered ‘socially acceptable’ today has become politicized. And, as said, through the use of propaganda in its various forms, it is manipulated. The populace is being told what is good and bad today and most people seem to swallow it. As a consequence, besides accomplishing the same thing a mandate or decree would, the public is left holding the bag… as if it was their idea. While there are always exceptions, those cases of truthfulness among journalists, there is a force challenging today's untruthfulness. It is a fluid force however, capable of changing directions like the wind. This force is society's flexible disposition. It is a force capable of producing a society, which, strangely, can be either a truthful or untruthful enterprise. Whatever the case, the collective disposition of society can quickly change directions and force changes. Perhaps though, truthfulness is a relative matter. Or spiritual. At any rate, for an undisciplined individual, their pendulum swings much faster, sometimes reaching one extreme to the other in just days. For the disciplined, they swing from no pendulum at all. But collectively, each individual contributes to the position of the pendulum which would describe a society (as a whole) on any given day. Today, for the freelance writer and journalism, there may be something new taking shape on the horizon. I think it is a more powerful attitude about truthfulness, perhaps the most powerful ever… whereby truth will soon be considered an actual commodity, a tangible commodity of substance… like iron, tin or copper. If truth was commonly viewed as a commodity, as valuable as if the only waterhole within a hundred miles… less likely would it be compromised for a sack full of goods. But alas, perhaps the idealist in me spoke foolishly. If truth was a commodity, like iron, tin or copper… supply and demand would quickly take charge. Sold out to the highest bidder, truthfulness would be enslaved once again. But, in another sense, it isn't truth being bought and sold... but falsehoods. After all, unless it is unleaded gasoline, you can't sell the missing ingredient. Looking at it this way, falsehoods would be the real commodity which would relegate truthfulness to being the remedy. Which is it then? Or is figurative language serving us here? While we know the work of freelance writers is bought and sold, all journalism in effect, but in those cases when a story wasn't completely truthful, then, for these purposes, we should determine what was actually sold. On one hand we could say stories can be sold with or without truthfulness, and on the other, with or without falsehoods. I donno, perhaps it's a relative AND spiritual matter. Then there is the question whether data purposefully omitted is untruthfulness. While assuredly most freelance writers treasure their works as ethical, assuredly they've also had to bend at times... to be politically correct. The dilemma. In order to keep their story credible and to keep their reputation intact, sometimes touchy facts are ignored... by simply not addressing them. By simply not addressing a touchy but related factor, in this day and age, is how many journalists maintain their credibility. If forced to defend themselves however, they can simply claim bluntness is no longer socially acceptable... but is this a lame or a socially-acceptable excuse? Or is there a difference anymore? Whether fortunately, or unfortunately, the integrity of the freelance writer (or journalist) is largely determined by the buyer. After all, a writer has little reason to skew a story... except for some, those trying to make a better living at it. It seems ironic in a way, when it comes to pressuring reporters or editing out the meat, the small town newspapers are the worst offenders. It is ironic because most of us hold dear our small towns, as if the last bastions of Americana. While they are in most respects (the last bastions) but in contrast to the independent nature of small towns, their general distaste for formal order, most of their editors are keeping in step with political correctness. While that may be a curiosity, it probably isn't a politically correct curiosity.
