Hello, bloggers!
It’s been a week since I took a step towards my dream and I couldn’t be happier.
Very few people are aware of this, but I am no longer tied down to a full-time job. That’s right, friends, I QUIT MY JOB!!! And it was such a wonderful feeling, such a powerful feeling! Relief… Freedom… Happiness…
Now, you may think I’m crazy, but I assure you, I am not. For once in my life, I am thinking about myself, my dreams, my passions. It’s time to focus on what I want my career to be, which is writing. The whole package… being an author, a freelancer, a researcher and a reader & reviewer.
My first step in this new chapter was to create a new site, one geared towards my writing and freelancing. Well, that site is now up and running at https://Freelance13Writer.WordPress.com/, and I’m gradually adding writing samples to it. I’ve also ordered business cards because, well, who doesn’t like business cards?!
My next order of business is to find some freelance gigs, while I focus on my two works-in-progress: a young adult romance and a short story. My writing, in general, has fallen to the backburner so I’m super excited to get back to it. I’m even more excited to share those stories with you!
So you see, today’s post is all about good news and I wanted to share it with all of you. I ask for your support along this new, exciting journey. I can’t wait to see what’s in store!!
Thanks for stopping by today and thank you for being YOU!
Until next time, lovelies………Reach for those stars! 😉
Congrats! Wishing you the best of luck as you move forward towards your dream. How exciting!

Wow, this is so cool! I feel like I’ve found a kindred spirit. You’re a few steps ahead of me. The day job isn’t for me – I’d much rather be my own boss – but waiting to see how God leads first! 🙂 Blessings on your journey.
