My one year freelancing anniversary

March marks one year of freelancing. Granted, when I started out a year ago I wasn't freelancing full time - I wrote an average of maybe three or four articles a month for the first six months. However, it's a worthwhile anniversary for me to celebrate, because it marks the beginning of my eventual escape from a horrible job...into the career of my dreams.

Just for fun, you can read my very first freelance article: "Tips for Straightening Curly or Frizzy Hair."

Looking back, I am happy to say I've come a long way. I've expanded my experience to include blogging, book and play reviews, press releases, and print and web-based articles on many different topics. And...I succeeded in shedding my day job! It really was a great year! :o)
