Another Ask Us Anything

Today we’re running our last live episode of the season! Jenni will be stepping away from TWC to focus on her family and health, and Wudan will carry on with managing the community and future iterations of the show. If you haven’t joined our Patreon program yet, please do – the Slack channel is always growing and a great place to find work, get advice, and meet other freelancers.  Today’s episode is a Q&A. We talk about how to break into this industry if you don’t have a ton of experience or want to change your niche, where your energy is best focused during slow work seasons, the things we’ve learned from taking long leaves of absence from work, and how many hours a freelancer can reasonably spend on creative projects in one day. Our Patreon members will get access to a worksheet about caregiving leave (which you can use to plan any kind of leave) as well as our tip sheet for handling slow seasons. You can always find those (and other resources!) in our store: https://www.thewriterscooppod.com/resources Other resources: How to handle slow seasons Our business-planning course Caregiving leave episode
