The majority of mail I receive lately is from freelancers who are frustrated by the mixed messages they receive from writing bloggers. I feel this is important to explore. The first step in beginning a freelance writing career is to research and if brand new writers are finding conflicting information, that means I’m part of the problem. My method of sharing information is to present the various opportunities, tell you what worked for me, and let you make the choices you’re comfortable. Other bloggers have their own line of thinking and they’re not wrong. I can understand the confusion. Let’s have a little town hall. Tell us what frustrates you – what mixed messages you’re receiving and I’ll do my best to address them all. I’m not going to promise to have all the answers, but I can at least try to help clear up the confusion.
