Balancing enthusiasm for a writing career with the realities involved isn't always easy. What may seem like a dream-job can turn into something far less attractive once the gloss wears off. But working out what is worth doing and what is not, is part of the whole experience.
Meet New Writer
New Writer is keen. She’ll write anything. By a strange coincidence, her local paper is advertising for freelance writers. She rings and the editor’s had a nil response so far. He’s despairing but his luck just changed.
Nothing Ventured, Nothing Gained.
NW tells him she’s had articles published and written some business copy. He wants advertising features, which she’s never written – a telephone interview, 400 words, £15. Not great money but better than a poke in the eye with a rejection letter, so she says, ‘Why not just let me write one for you and see how it goes?’ And he says, ‘OK.’
