It is possible to make a comfortable living as a self-employed freelance writer.
To find out how, tune to today’s WordCount Last Wednesday writer’s chat, when we’ll discuss how to supercharge your freelance writing income.
The chat takes place at 10 a.m. Pacific time. Use the hashtag #wclw to join the conversation.
Questions for the chat
For the 60-minute chat, we’ll start with introductions, move to some pre-set questions and leave time at the end for your questions.
Here are the pre-set questions:
- Q1: In 2011, was your freelance writing income higher, lower or the same as in 2010?
- Q2: What are you doing in 2011 to boost your freelance income?
- Q3: What freelance markets pay more – or less – than you realized?
- Q4: What’s been your biggest obstacle to a higher freelance income?
Joining the #wclw chat
It’s possible to use the standard Twitter interface for the chat, but you might find it easier to follow along with an add-on application such as TweetGrid, TweetChat or HootSuite. Of those three, my favorite is TweetChat, which you can log into using your Twitter account. You might want to alert followers that you’ll be tweeting more than usual during the chat, and suggest they use Muuter.com to temporarily mute you if they don’t want to tune into the conversation.
If you’re unable to join us, I’ll post highlights from the chat in an upcoming post.
