I have been so busy lately I feel like I don’t know when if i’m coming or going. I have 4 internships and school and work. Lately I have and 8 freelance pieces selected by various publications for print or online use. I should be happy right??? I’m pleased but not overjoyed;maybe it’s just me??
I applied for a position writing newsletter columns for a huge cell phone company. I applied two days ago and they called me back today, which is great. The HR person gave me one of those quick telephone interviews where they asked if I could do the job and what experience I had. I told the man that I know the industry because I use to work for another cell phone company and I edit and write, intern and freelance. The guy also wanted to know what kind of compensation, I told him around 22,000 annually. I’m not pickey I want anything in my field. I told him I could submit writing samples if they wanted to get a look at my skills.
I am unsure about a lot of things, but after struggling with myself I have finally gained the confidence in my writing and editing. My fellow reporters at school frequently comment on my writing being really good. I don’t want to toot my own horn, but on this blog is really the only place I can share my victories. My family and friends don’t understand nor are they interested in writing nor do they even read what I write, so dear readers it’s just you and me.
If you are discouraged believe in yourself and don’t let that little voice in your head be your own worst enemy.
