Your post on Bali and digital nomad life was one of the better things I’ve read online in the past 6 months. Honest, entertaining, aware. If anyone here hasn’t read that one yet, check it out. Makes you think in all the right ways.
There's nothing that stops me scrolling like seeing "Internetly" in my mailbox. I absolutely cherish your newsletter and congrats on your 4th year! Your writing feels like a countryside retreat <3
Thanks for sharing Alice! I'm in year six of freelance writing and still managing many of the same juggling acts that you are, but overall agree that it is a bit of a dream job. I've got freelancer friends who are thrilled to add a couple hundred a month to the family coffers and others who are cruising toward a quarter million this year... Best to find what works for us and let the comparisons fall to the side once we get what we need from them. Cheers to year 5 for you!
Hey Alice, congratulations on your 4th year as a writer ! I loved reading about your experience. Quick question from a girly still trying to figure life out : what made you realize that was the path you wanted to take ?
Alice, I enjoyed so many things about this issue of Internetly, especially the ups and downs of freelancing. Thanks for giving us a glimpse into your world.
Loved this line 'Don’t forget why you wanted to become a writer. As Neil Gaiman says: “Leave the world more interesting for your being here.”
Why I write: as an essayist/memoirist, I like feeling less alone and writing and reading other people's work makes me feel less lonely. It's very therapeutic, and something about Internetly makes me feel the same way!
