I’ve been a full-time freelance writer since 2018, working my way up from sideline writing since as early as 2005. The writing space has changed dramatically over that time. Clients have come and gone. New tools have shaped our industry. Innumerable words I’ve written have been agonized over, published, noticed or ignored, and forgotten. Some here or there still garner some attention.

All this makes me feel qualified to make a few observations for this New Year of 2024. I’m still learning lessons like how hard it can be to succeed in this industry. My own success has been varied and enjoyable. I still readily recommend digital freelancing as a career to anyone willing to invest the time and effort necessary.

Here are five things I believe will be critical for freelance writers to embrace in 2024. I welcome your comments and observations.
