Maybe you’re someone who’s thinking about dipping their toes into freelance writing, or maybe you’re a seasoned pro who knows the ins and outs of the industry.
Whether you’re a beginner or have been writing for years, there will always be times when you worry about having enough work.
Freelance writing comes with its risks, especially if you’re doing it full-time. The worst thing that can ever happen to you, though, is to lose every single client at the same time.
It’s rare, but it does happen, and trust me when I say you never want it to happen to you.
I have to be honest with you. I think I scare a lot of new freelance writers. Not because I look funny or act evil or anything.
It’s because this year, I’ll be graduating with a degree in communications.
Doesn’t sound so scary, does it? Nope, not really.
Freelance writing is undoubtedly an awesome career for those looking for some extra income on the side.
You work from home, and have the chance to select projects and work within your capabilities and interests.
Are you pitching like mad and seeing no success? You don’t get it, because you check the job boards constantly, hustle day and night and want to get paid for your writing.
As a new freelance writer, you may think all you need to “make it” are good writing skills and a knack for researching any topic, but you’re missing one important part to making a living from writing.
You have probably heard the saying, “People do business with people they like.”
Have you ever noticed how you keep going back to a particular service provider or business that may not necessarily be the best in their field, yet you return time after time?
If you’re anything like me, X/Twitter takes up a lot of your time.
Whether you’re scrolling through a trending hashtag for a laugh or two or desperately stalking your favorite celebrity, it’s that kind of place where time seems to disappear.
