I’ve been a freelance writer and editor for 13 years this month. I hoped when I started that this would be my last job before retiring and so it seems it will be. I’ve never been happier with a job though freelancing certainly does bring its share of stress, particularly if you’re single or your family’s sole breadwinner. But it offers many benefits to make up for its shortcomings and I still enjoy my work, mainly for its variety, for what I learn and for the many creative people I have worked with along the way.
I hope you will come with me on this journey of the freelance life…maybe you’ll find out you want a new career, or a new city, or just a bite to eat in a fabulous coffee shop. Whatever you discover through this blog, I’ll be delighted to hear about it!
I remember so well when you took the plunge into the freelance life.(I was happy for you but missed having a buddy there in the Bender Building on Conn. Ave.!) I'm so glad it has been a great choice for you. I'm going to make myself your first follower! Welcome to the blogging life. Sometimes it feels like your words float out into the ether and no one gives a hoot, and then one day someone tells you something you wrote made a difference. I hope that's how it is for you!
