Interested in learning how to start a business?
Did you know you can start a blog and turn that into a business?
I’ve been blogging since 2014. I have two blogs – Elna Cain to help with freelance writers and Twins Mommy to help moms make money blogging. I get emails all the time asking for help on how to start a blog for their freelance business or as a way to earn an income and grow their brand.
I’m currently dealing with a difficult client.
And this is a high-paying freelance writing project too.
It’s not fun since I’ve been freelance writing since 2014, and you would think I wouldn’t be dealing with difficult clients!
Picture this:
You finally landed a freelance writing client, and you’re ecstatic.
You go through the onboarding process with your new client, and they give you a content brief in the next few days.
Writing is a form of creativity, and as freelance writers, it’s our job to write compelling blog posts, white papers, case studies, or any content a client wants.
And because we write, this job can take a toll on us whether we like it or not.
I never understood this idea of: even though you have the TIME to do the work, you may not have the ENERGY to do it.
I recently checked out my online writing portfolio, and guess what I found?
A dead link!
Ouch.
Since I’ve been freelance writing for almost a decade, for some reason I wasn’t paying too much attention to my portfolio.
But, not anymore. I’m still actively landing writing jobs, and I need my writing portfolio online to act as a tool to help me land amazing jobs.
This is shocking!
I discovered that the true answer to how much new freelance writers make remains low – $10/hour.
Writers are struggling financially, and I think I know why.

What’s the fastest way to build your freelance writing business when people are losing their jobs everywhere you look?
The tech and media industries are laying off thousands of workers.
If you are one of the 63% of Americans living paycheck to paycheck, then budgeting is a must.
Fortunately, adding a side hustle like freelance writing, can help you live more freely (travel around the world) and sustainably.
One of the best reasons I love about being a freelance writer is you can make up your own salary and rates.
Have you been hearing a lot about AI and AI writing tools?
ChatGPT is here, and everyone is going bonkers on Twitter. Wherever you look, it’s on Youtube, Medium, and Google!
