Freelance Writing and Research

Yesterday I was quite miserable and concerned about getting back on top of my writing. Between family troubles and health problems I have had a hard time maintaining my usual work schedule and this is a key factor in making a living as a freelance writer. The fact of the matter is that a writer writes and when they are not writing, or are only getting bits and pieces done then often the result is sheer misery.

Some time ago I wrote a post on what people might do if they could no longer write. For most writers this idea is hell to entertain as writing is so much a part of who they are as a person. So today I have again discovered how much I need to write in order to survive; not just financially but in most areas of my life.
