5 Unique ways to make Money Writing this Year.
Writing is something many of us would do for free but lets be honest, there's nothing wrong with trying to get a little money from your passion every now and then. If you're interested in getting paid for writing at all or have done any kind of research you've probably been told more than a few times to start a blog or hop on Fiver. And these are great choices no doubt but can often prove to be more hassle than they're worth. Blogs take a lot of time and effort and freelancing on any popular site these days is so painfully saturated, you'll be lucky to make back the money you put in.

The Key to Better Writing: Don't take yourself too seriously
Writing is just one of those things that, as humans, we need it to live, just like any other form of art or expression. You could say it separates living from just surviving.

Where to start with Tarantino.
Quentin Tarantino has been pumping out high quality movies since before most of us were born and rarely has there been a dip in quality or style. This is partly due to the time in between each project and mostly due to the perfectionist nature found within Tarantino himself, constantly aiming for excellence and often reaching it. With intense action, riveting dialogue and powerhouse acting throughout his nine films there's never been a better time to get binging before his tenth, and supposedly final, film comes round the corner.

No Country for Old Men: What was it all about?
'No Country For Old Men' is a 2007 film, directed by Joel and Ethan Coen, starring Josh Brolin, Javier Bardem, Woody Harrelson and Tommy Lee Jones. Following Llewelyn Moss (Josh Brolin) on the run after he finds and takes a briefcase filled with 2 million dollars, the film deals with themes of fate and consequence, similar to other Coen brother films. With incredible performances all round, its Javier Bardem's portrayal of the psychopathic killer Anton Chigurh that stands out amongst the rest and has gone down in history as one of the best performances of all time. Roger Deakin's cinematography is (as usual) stunning and the lack of music only adds to the intense realism. Adored by fans and critics alike, 'No Country For Old Men' is often accompanied by mountains of praise and respect.
