Do Freelance Writers work on Holidays?

…this one does! Even though everybody needs some time off, I find this quite difficult to say the least. As you probably know, today is Thanksgiving for those of us in the United States. Even though I do not plan on working the entire day, I will definitely put in a few hours in the morning before the day’s festivities kick off.

In my opinion, there is nothing wrong with working on the holidays. I know a lot of people will disagree with this, but if you want to be good at what you do you should be devoted. While I take this overboard sometimes, staying away from the computer all day is hard for me to do.

Since most people don’t have the time to read a long blog post on Thanksgiving, I’ll stop here. If you are reading this, there is a good chance that you are working today. If so, good for you!

    That’s why I love working online, it really never seems like work! I would much rather be online getting a few things done instead sitting around and just watching TV.

    Happy Turkey Day! I’m planning to put in a few hours later on tonight, and definitely over the weekend. The need to put in some time doesn’t disappear on the holidays - especially when you’re starting out!

    Happy Thanksgiving!

    Like Deborah, I too plan to put in my work hours tonight (as usual). In the meantime, I’m just reading my favorite blogs, and soon I’ll be stuffing myself with turkey and all the fixings. ;)

    I planned to work yesterday, but it just didn’t happen. It was a good little break…but I’m glad to be back in the trenches today. I have a fair bit of work ahead of me!
