Living The Dream
Living the dream...well I guess I could say that I'm living the dream. After the dream of a wonderful husband, house, and 2 dogs (yes, I always pictured 2 dogs...I actually picture more, but we don't have the land to support them yet;). I had the dream of freelance writer. January 2006 I saw that dream through and so the dream must expand. I currently am a Marketing Assistant for a company and I've loved every moment of it. My boss has been supportive of my dream to write and has given me many opportunities expand my portfolio. I have been able to write copy for our company website as well as one of one of our trade journals. I tend to do a lot of editing in my job and was reminded that editing has its own category in the freelance market. I tend to get wrapped up in the thought that to "write" is the only way to freelance, however editing is another way in the door. I can build contacts and network while I edit and later on I may reap the benefits.
