Do you struggle to write blog posts when it's noisy? Here are five practical tips to help. It's almost never quiet at my house.

Updating the Annual Menu Plan

Can you believe that July's already half over? Seriously, where does the time go? Each July, I spend time revamping our yearly schedule and plans. This weekend, I tackled the annual meal plan.  How an Annual Meal Plan Helps My Freelancing As I shared in this post, annual meal plans free up a ton of time. I'm no longer spending time each day trying to figure out what's for dinner. The kids are no longer asking me what we'll be eating. Everyone just knows. I only need to make one master ...

How to Write in a Client’s Voice

Learning a client's voice takes a bit of time. Whenever I bring on a new client I'll be ghostwriting for, there are several steps I take to ensure my content lines up with their existing content. Let's look at those. Read As Much As You CanIt's so important to immerse yourself in your client's voice, so read as much as you can. Look for blog posts, social media updates, and past newsletters.

May Freelance Income Report

Yikes--do you know what happened? I put off writing April's income report because I was pretty bummed about the numbers. Then, it sort of threw me off schedule. You see, I used to write about my income for the previous month around the first of the next month. That makes sense, right?

How I Use Excel as a Freelancer

Paperwork is essential for freelancers! It's how we get paid, how we keep track of deadlines, and how we plan our next steps.

But, it works ...
