Interesting post. I could use a coach for freelance writing. I have a screenwriting coach which is a big help. I need to find a “mentor” who can encourage me to stick with freelance writing and to give me tips and tricks for success.

Thanks, good list – I particularly like #9. Sometimes you just have to put in the grunt work before you get to the more fun stuff. As you say, keep your end goal in mind.
