Small fish in the freelance pond

Just keep swimming...
Cough, Cough, HACK.
That was me choking on the ploom of dust that bellowed upward as I cracked my beloved blog.
I have missed my baby, but mama is out making the money honey. One of my 2010 goals is to begin earning a livable income through writing. So that is where my “free time” has been spent. Working with clients that pay well for quality work.
Last year I made a grand total of…drum roll…$275. I know, I know. Baller. Since January I am happy to report that I have earned $615, not bad for 2 months (and on an extremly part time basis, as my real day job takes priority).
Just more arsenal in the hope bank. Hope for my future and hope for my dreams. And hope for our financial security.
The affirmations keep coming that I am on the right path, that writing is my truth. And that I might actually have what it takes to “make it” doing something that I love.

Kudos to you, pursuing free-lance writing while holding down a full-time job and having a family. I’ve been pretty busy, too, with free-lance work. The work is great. The hard part is balancing everything. Good luck and hope to see more posts.

Thanks MomZombie! I would love to get together again for another bloger,writer, or whatever meetup! Make sure to keep me in the loop for anything that is planned.
