The underrated solution: publish your own digital flipbook. Readers have shown that they enjoy the medium, but thus far digital flipbooks haven’t yet reached their full potential as a means for bloggers to interest their audiences.

Freelance writing requires you to take responsibility for yourself in a way that other jobs don’t. Your mind, like your body, must be trained to perform in certain ways, and a regimented schedule is a necessity when it comes to earning a living as a freelance writer.
