I am trying to figure out becoming a freelance writer. Would appreciate honest opinions from people who have actually done this.
Honestly not for everyone. Depends on how much risk you can handle.
It worked out really well for me, but I also got lucky with timing. Your results may vary.
I would say go for it, but keep your day job until you are sure it is stable.
