It sounds ideal, doesn’t it? Freelance writing lets you work from home, set your own schedule and still have lots of time to see the bight match. Sorry, but freelancing is not an excuse to have lots of snack breaks or sit in the garden. Treat it like a job. Set some time aside each day to look at newspapers and magazines, look at job sites and, most importantly, do some writing. Keep copies of your articles, of correspondence (whether email or snail mail) and of all relevant bills so you can claim any tax relief or expenses due to you. If you take freelancing seriously, you might be able to make some money from your writing.
