Freelance writing spinach: confidence

Remember Popeye the Sailor and his can of spinach?

Confidence is a freelance writer’s spinach. All you have to do is use it. Just imagine yourself swallowing a can of confidence every time you start to wonder whether you can actually make a living at freelance writing. Or, if you’re writing full-time already, wondering whether you can make six-figures at writing.

You especially need your spinach when you get a rejection.

Rejection is a fact of a writer’s life. It’s been so many years since I let rejections bother me that I’ve forgotten what it’s like to be disappointed and depressed that X didn’t buy whatever I was pitching at the time. If you’re just starting out on your freelance career, you’ll find this hard to believe, but after you’ve been writing for a few years, you’ll get blase about rejections too. Your only thought on getting a “rejection” will be: “Your loss. Next!” as you send your query or proposal to another market.
