Learn from Freelance Writing Blogs
When I first started my career as a freelance writer, I spoke with as many people in the industry as possible. Additionally, I was always browsing the internet looking for new and useful freelance writing blogs and sites.
While it is my hopes that aspiring and established freelance writers read my blog for good advice, it is safe to say that I do not know everything. For this reason, I am still reading as much as I can about freelance writing even though I have been around the block a few times.
One of my favorite freelance writing blogs is Beyond the Rhetoric by Michael Kwan. Not only does Michael offer top notch information on freelance writing, but he also mixes in a lot of other posts touching on things such as technology, movie reviews, and other interesting topics. If you are interested in getting involved with freelance writing, Michael will be able to give you some direction. He has a lot of experience within the industry, and works closely with one of the top online money making gurus, John Chow.
If you are interested in the concept of freelancing, but are not the best writer, you should check out another favorite blog of mine, FreelanceSwitch. The great thing about this blog is that it is devoted to freelancers of all types. While my content is geared mainly towards writers, FreelanceSwitch touches on subjects that affect anybody who works on a freelance basis. As you can imagine, I can easily identify with 99 percent of the posts.
You are never too experienced to learn from others. I have come across many great freelance writing blogs from people who leave comments here.
If you have a freelance writing blog that you want to plug, feel free to do so in the comment section. I am sure myself, as well as other readers, will check it out!

I agree with this. I’ve been doing this freelancing thing for several years, and I love reading other writing blogs. I get ideas, leads for jobs, and valuable tips. It’s wonderful!

Interesting that you say you spoke to a lot of people. I find this is not really easy, sitting at my computer, typing away, surfing the Internet.
I guess that balance with connections to real people is really important. It keeps things in perspective.
