Use Sunday for Freelance Writing Research
I have always found it easy to research new projects, markets, and much more on the weekend, especially Sunday. During the week I am so caught up with my day to day work that it can be difficult to make time for research. But when Sunday comes around, I can sit in front of my computer for hours on end without having to worry about actually working on projects.
What type of freelance writing research can you do on any given Sunday?
1. Search for new publications that align with your interests. Even if you have a lot of work to do, it is always a good idea to have other jobs in mind. Using a tool like Writer’s Market will definitely help in this area.
2. Read forums that line up with your freelance writing career. There are many forums devoted to writing alone, as well as some that touch on internet marketing, business in general, and much more.
3. Put together a plan for a new blog, website, or business that you are hoping to get up and running.
If you have nothing else to do today, why not consider some research for your freelance writing career?

I just started my freelance career and I worked almost all day long. I’m at the beginning and I’ve found that I love writing! And also it pays well!

I hear this. I tend to work every spare minute, while balancing the time I spend at my regular job and maintaining relationships away from the computer! I didn’t work as much this past Sunday as I normally do, but I was at the computer a few times, for sure!
