What I’m Doing Now

Updated 20th April 2023 from Chiang Mai, Thailand

Four Months in as a Full-Time Writer

I’m finding my feet as a full-time freelance writer and digital nomad. I quit my corporate job last November, and although I’ve been freelancing on the side for close to two years, going all-in on writing has brought me face-to-face with my fears.

Why am I doing this? Can I make this work?

Fortunately, after sending 10-15 job applications a week for the best part of five weeks, I now have three steady clients.

Here are two things that have pulled me through these moments of doubt:

• Reminding myself that action cures fear

• Building a Wall of Love on Notion (aka screenshots from thoughtful emails, comments, and messages I’ve received on my writing over the last three years)
