The Ups and Downs of Freelancing

One thing that you can say about freelancing is that no two weeks are ever the same. If boredom with routine is one of your problems then maybe the ups and downs of freelancing might be the answer to your prayers.

When you have a regular job that you get bored with you do at least know that there is going to be a pay packet at the end of the month, this is not always the case with freelancing. One day you can be up to your ears in work and wondering how you will get finished and the next you find yourself with nothing to do. This is not only a nuisance it can cause real problems. Freelancers need to be on the lookout for more projects all the time if they are to keep the wolf from the door. If your writing pays the bills then the ups and downs of freelancing can make a steady, boring job with a regular pay packet very attractive - but not for long, because you are of course a writer.
