Freelance writing requires persistence and lots of it! For new writers, it is discouraging to be rejected by potential clients, to have your queries rejected, or otherwise be turned down for a writing job. For experienced writers, rejection is still difficult. In these times of discouragement it is easy to get down or to beat yourself up.
But what is required is persistence. Writing requires you pick yourself back up, go out, and find another job to apply for, send another query, and keep looking for potential clients.
The Internet offers so many places to find freelance work.
One of the best resources for freelance writers (in my opinion) is Deb Ng's Freelance Writing Jobs blog. Nearly every weekday she posts new job leads to her site. Not only does this offer writers hope, it makes it easier for writers to find and get more work!
Be persistent this week, whether you receive rejection letters or acceptance letters.
