What Can You Expect From this Blog?

You’re a busy person, so I’m going to get straight to the point. I’m a novice blogger. Sure, I’ve written countless blog posts for clients, but I’ve never written a blog as, or for, myself. 

And in truth, that’s not what I’m doing now. Because this blog is for you. 

It’s here to:

  • Answer any questions you have about freelance writing and working from home
  • Prevent you from making the same mistakes I did 
  • Give you the benefit of of my seven years’ experience in the industry 

So if you have a burning question, leave me a note in the comments section or via the contact page, and I’ll do my best to answer your query. 

But for now, while I’m still learning, I plan to feature the type of content that I would have liked to see when I was first starting out. 

Over the coming months, you can expect to see posts about copywriting, freelance writing and working from home, social media and everything in-between. 

To start with, there will be one new blog post every week.  Then once I’ve got a few under my belt, the posts will become more sporadic. After that, I’ll be writing sneaky ninja blog posts that creep up on you out of nowhere, just to mix things up and make sure you’re paying attention.

This is my blogging experiment, and I’d love for you to be a part of it. 

You can be Pierre to my Marie Curie. But the blogging version. And without anyone dying from radiation exposure, obviously. 

Actually forget that, look upon it instead as a blogging quest, like a less exciting version of Lord of the Rings – a Lord of the Blogs, if you will. 

So if you have a question or something specific you’d like to see featured, get in touch. And if I can share something of use or value, then you can expect to see your idea featured in a future post. 

Let’s embark upon this blogging experiment/quest-thingy together. 

Wanna read more posts like this? Well, in exchange for your email address and a lock of hair from your firstborn child, you can have the next thrilling instalment delivered straight to you inbox. No? Okay, I’ll settle for just your email address. Stick it in the sign-up box, and I’ll do the rest.

    Hollie— I barely grasp Twitter— blogging remains unexplored terrain. But knowing it’s you creating the terrain, I’m willing to venture into the unknown. 😁.

    Moreover, these topics sound fantastic for writers of all walks.

      Thanks for reading, Carrie! In all honesty, it’s unexplored terrain for me too. Writing in my own ‘voice’ is a new and slightly scary experience, so it’s good to know I’ve got a few friendly readers onside. 🙂

    Your blog intro has made me chuckle a couple of times. In the words of the great Bono, I will follow. One ring.

    I love your sense of humor, I also work from home, as an editor/writer so I’m sure I’ll learn something too.

      Thanks for reading and taking the time to comment, Brian! I’ve been blogging for well over a year now and have a few posts under my belt, but still have loads to learn. I think the key is to be honest, authentic and find your own unique voice. It seems to be working for me so far anyway! 😉
