    Hi, I am a third year Journalism student at the University of Lincoln and I am currently in the process of writing an essay about freelancing.

    Therefore, I was wondering whether I could ask you a few questions about your experiences.

    The questions include:

    Why did you become a freelance journalist?

    How difficult was it to get started?

    Is this your only job?

    How long have you been a freelance journalist?

    How much freelance work have you done so far and who for?

    How much money do you usually make from your freelancing work?

    Do you feel like you have a lot of competition?

    Do you come across any legal or ethical hazards?

    Would you recommend becoming a freelance journalist?


    This would be a fantastic help and would not take up too much of your time.

    Hope to hear from you soon.
    Thank you :)

    If you think you can become a freelancer writer then you think how you can become only heard work makes you perfect in this field. I don't know how much salaries earn by the freelance journalist but I believe if you are expert in your field then you can earn decent amount of money.

    Yes, you are right. If you are expert in any field and even if that field is saturated, then still you can earn a lot. To know how much a person can make as a freelancer in a specific field, visit the freelance site and check the profile of the persons working in the same field.

    I think you will have a great article. It was difficult for me to write even an essay at the university. All thoughts did not fit in my head and it was difficult to express everything in the story. Therefore, I decided to turn for help to the essay writing service for my assignments. Luckily, I got the finished job on time. And the teacher did not have any questions. I think that writing requires talent, effort alone is not enough.

    A good list of questions that you ask before jumping into something. Few of the questions should be answered by you only.
    Why did you become a freelance journalist? - Please ask yourself, why do you want to be a journalist?
    Is this your only job? - Do you want to focus on journalists only? There are other works too that you can do with journalists in freelancing. For example, writing for news websites, or starting your own blog, there are many opportunities as a freelancer. Other opportunities are active if you want to try.
    Do you feel like you have a lot of competition? - There are competitions everywhere - offline and online. You will surely have to work hard to stand out among all.
    Do you come across any legal or ethical hazards? - Depends, obviously on what you write and how much it affects others, and how it goes viral.

    The below questions should not affect your decision as everyone has their own journey, right? Few start with ambition and enthusiasm but give up on facing even small issues, while few work hard till they get success in what they do.
    How difficult was it to get started?
    How long have you been a freelance journalist?
    How much freelance work have you done so far and who for?

    Now, this one is really good:
    How much money do you usually make from your freelancing work?
    In freelancing, You can explore a number of opportunities and related work. If you start working as a journalist freelancer, you can work for multiple businesses and write for them. You can try other writing forms too. Or, you can just earn with some easy tasks too. Yes, there are several opportunities to encounter in freelancing.

    Your last question: Would you recommend becoming a freelance journalist?
    Freelance - Yes.
    Journalist - This is your decision. If you've skills or even interest, I advise you to research and work on improving your skills to make yourself a professional.

    Hope this solves your queries and makes it easy for you to take action.
