I began this Freelance career earlier this year after having many job issues. It may not have been a good idea for me to move 1000 miles to the middle of nowhere to a state with the highest unemployment rate. But I did. For 2 years I did temp jobs, going from one to the next. Not liking any of them. Finally I had enough and began my quest to work from home. I lived in a small town, and taking the 30 minute to 1 hour long commute to a decent paying job just did not sound like a lot of fun to me. I had some ups and downs, as you saw from previous posts. Bad times, good time. Things I am not proud of. But, I wanted to share that experience so if others are out there, doubting that they can make it in the writing world, I am here to tell you, that you can. I may not be a million dollar novelist, and I many not always get to write what I want, but I have gotten myself out of corporate America and doing something that I love to do. Life has to go on, and I have to make the best of it.
Good luck to those seeking the way on their own journey.
