That is what I am hoping for. It is my ideal. Actually it is more imperative than that. I have given up my public sector job to become a freelance writer. If I don't get published I can't pay the rent, or any of those more mundane but essential considerations.
Over the weeks and months that follow, I will keep you up to date with the world of freelance writing. I will pour out my heart about the crushing rejection I will no doubt receive. I will celebrate with elation the day my first article is published. I will shout the house down when I receive my first cheque!
I have no doubt that, like a vast number of blogs, as I write this I am talking only to myself. I hope that in the near future my blog will be read by editors as I pitch article after article to them. I only hope they like what they see. Fingers crossed.
