As a freelance writer, are you dreading finding a writing niche?
The age old freelance writing advice is to write what you know and to seek out opportunities that highlight your expertise.
Now, don’t get me wrong – that is definitely a great place to start, but what if you don’t know anything that is payable?
Feel stuck?
Have no idea what the first step to freelance writing is?
You want to be a freelance writer, but with all the blog posts or videos out there, you are suddenly overwhelmed. There’s just too much information.
As a freelance writer, most of you won’t have to use a cover letter to land a job.
But, there will be some job ads that specify a freelance writer have a cover letter to apply for that writing gig.
And with that, your resume and your cover letter can make or break the opportunity to land your dream job.
The other day I shared an old blog post on this blog to a writer that needed some advice on freelance writing.
I reviewed the post to make sure it answered her question and I was shocked!

While the post did provide highly actionable tips I could overlook the poor way I structured my writing.
