Hi Netta, Even though I'm not a Freelance Writer, I still find this post very interesting and educational. I'm glad I don't do what you do. I'm not that organized or desciplined as you are. Hee, hee. Cheers! Tasha tashabuds last blog post..The Animal Personality Test

Hi, Pahn…yes, discipline is the key. I think we all work on that. Good luck, and stop by again!

Heh, Jenn! Chalk it up to a typo — it happens to me all the time, then I wince afterward. You’re right…it’s a hard balance, and I, for one, am teetering all the time.

I appreciate your faith, Big D. From your mouth to the Universe’s ear.

So true. All of these things are made even more complicated when you're freelance career isn't paying the money you actually need and you have to go out and find part time or even full time work to compensate, as is my current situation. Of course, all hope of getting a 9-5 job in writing work is next to impossible given the current economy! Jenn Astles last blog post..Tina Fey Gets Her Period

Don’t be intimidated, Akirah. It is amazing; most people who want to write for a living don’t realize the learning curve they’ll have to conquer. I’ve seen your site, and you’re doing a great job! I hope you’ll continue to find help or inspiration here. If there’s anything I can do to help, or a subject I’ve missed you’d like to see covered, just let me know.

Thanks for stopping and commenting!

This is so true! I’m just starting out and it’s amazing how many hats I find myself attempting to wear. I just keep hoping that with more time, experience, and research I’ll get the hang of things. But I am having a lot of fun!
