Summarize the following:
In addition to freelancing resource sites, consider searching advertising sites such as Craigslist where individuals outside the field of publishing may be seeking writing assistance. Ensure you understand your client's expectations before taking on a project -- and verify they understand that you are a writer and not a literary agent. You might be able to offer advice to your client, but you won't be formally "representing" their publishing needs. Always sign a written agreement with your client before undertaking a ghostwriting project. At minimum, this contract should itemize the work you'll be doing, how much you'll be paid, when you'll be paid, your deadline, and who will retain copyright (usually this will be your client). It's a good idea to seek legal assistance in composing or evaluating a contract. Make you have an author's Web site and/or blog, and specify on your site that you are interested in ghostwriting. Mention your ghostwriting services in your email signature, and let editors, story sources, and colleagues know you're ghostwriting. Experience helps, but promote what you have. Seek ghostwriting opportunities in fields where you bring special skills. A background working in the computing field, for example, may make you an attractive ghostwriter for someone seeking a writer conversant with technological jargon. Ghostwriting generally means you will not receive personal credit for your work. You do, however, gain multiple advantages. First, ghostwriters are not responsible for publicizing their work -- simply fulfill the terms of your writing contract and you're done. Second, you will spend less time on research and preparation, as your client is generally responsible for providing background material, or at minimum pointing you in the right direction. In addition, you may enjoy the opportunity work as part of a team in what is often a very solitary profession. A typical ghostwriting contract is paid entirely in advance. If a publication is likely to generate substantial sales, however, you may consider accepting a smaller advance and a cut of the profits. In cases where your name appears on a title as co-author or editor, you may determine that the prestige of the association merits accepting a lower fee, perhaps in combination with a percentage of the book's royalties.

summary: Search online resources to find opportunities. Advertise your services. Analyze the strengths and weaknesses of each ghostwriting opportunity.

To make fake geodes you will need eggshells, a glass container, alum, hot water, craft glue, a small paintbrush, and food coloring. All of these items are readily available at the grocery store. You can find alum in the spice aisle as it is used for pickling vegetables. The eggshells need to be cut in half widthwise, washed out, and dried before use. The food coloring is optional, but it allows you to color the crystals of the geode. The glass container needs to be large enough for the eggshell to be completely immersed in water. Pour some craft glue onto a piece of newspaper and use a paintbrush to coat the inside of the eggshell. You only need a thin layer of glue; just enough for the alum to stick to the surface. Don't let the glue dry between this step and the next. While the glue is still wet, sprinkle some alum powder onto the glue. The powdered alum will serve as a starting point for a crystal to grow. If you want smaller crystals, completely coat the inside of the egg with alum because the crystals will not be able to grow very large when they are close together. If you want larger crystals, lightly sprinkle the alum making sure there is some space between the powder granules. Leave the eggshell to dry overnight. Use hot water to make a solution that is completely saturated with alum (no more alum will dissolve). Use enough water to fill your container so that the eggshell will be completely immersed. Add a tablespoon of alum and stir to dissolve. Keep adding alum until no more dissolves in the water. At this point, the solution is saturated. Add food coloring to change the color of the geode. Cool the solution to room temperature. Once the solution is cooled, transfer it to the container you will use for the growth phase. Gently place the egg into the container and make sure it is completely covered by the solution. Cover the top of the container with plastic wrap or foil to keep dust out. As time passes, the alum crystals will grow larger from the starting points on the eggshell. It can take a few days for the crystals to grow to a respectable size. Check on the eggshell geode each day and remove it from the solution when you are satisfied with the growth of the crystals. Store the experiment in a place where it will not be bumped. If it gets bumped or moved around, the crystals will not form properly. Once you remove the eggshell from the solution, you will have made an alum crystal geode!

summary: Gather the necessary materials. Paint glue on the eggshells. Sprinkle alum on the glue before it dries. Make a saturated alum solution. Place the egg in the saturated alum solution. Let the container sit for at least 24 hours.

If you feel like inventing your own salad, move on to the next step to begin the step-by-step instructions. If you're looking for something faster, here are a few well-tested ideas that can stand at the center of your meal: Chef's salad: sliced ham, cheese, hard-boiled egg, cucumber, and tomato on a bed of lettuce. This can stand up to thicker, stronger-flavored dressings such as Caesar salad dressing, ranch, or Thousand Island. Salad Nicoise: a French salad of potatoes, tomatoes, egg, olives, and fish (usually anchovies or tuna), among other ingredients. Southwest salad: Combine cooked corn and black beans with red peppers, spring onions, and plenty of avocado and/or grilled chicken. Season with cilantro and lime. You can start with lettuce or mixed greens, if you're prepared to amp it up with plenty of protein and starchy ingredients. Another approach is to use a bed of grains, especially something with plenty of texture like brown rice or quinoa. A bed of rice noodles works well for Asian salads. This isn't just for show; a variety of colours means a variety of vitamins. Strips of red, orange, or yellow bell pepper are a great choice. Also try shredded carrot; shredded beets (raw, pickled or cooked); or sliced tomatoes. You can even add edible flowers. Add intensity with roasted garlic, pitted olives, or diced hot peppers. Use avocado for a creamy texture. Keep it tasty but more casual with chopped asparagus, any kind of onion, or flavorful mushrooms. These little nibbles make a salad much more interesting. There are all kinds of options: Any nuts or seeds walnuts, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, etc. Breads or grains croutons, tortilla chips, popcorn, cooked quinoa Any type of fresh or dried fruit, especially berries Snap peas, corn niblets, or other small veggies A salad requires protein to become an entree. Choose just one or two of the following, chopped into bite-size pieces. Cooked beans chickpeas, lentils Cheese Parmesan Swiss, or feta for more subtle flavor; cheddar or blue cheese for strong flavor Other vegetarian options soft- or hard-boiled egg, tofu Meat tuna, chicken breast, ham, grilled fish or steak, shrimp, squid Salad dressing can be purchased or made at home. Whichever you choose, drizzle over the salad and toss until thoroughly coated. If you made the salad in advance, wait until just before serving to add the dressing. Combine one part Balsamic vinegar with three parts olive oil and add salt & pepper for a classic dressing. This is best on lettuce or tomato salads. You can easily add crushed garlic or any savory herb. Mix Greek yogurt with lemon juice, garlic, oregano and hot sauce for a strong dressing, best on strong-flavored leaves such as arugula or radicchio. Mix freshly squeezed fruit juice, olive oil, salt and pepper for a fresh fruity dressing Check out this article for more ideas.
summary: Choose your approach. Start with a base ingredient. Add colourful veggies. Mix in veggies with strong flavours. Add extra texture. Add your protein. Toss with dressing. Finished.
