If you want to write - really want to - you should have a go at it full-time. There are 6 irresistible reasons, I feel, to work at home full-time as a freelance writer.

Time to Write
When you choose to write full-time as a home-based business, all the hours of the day are up for grabs. With no other "regular job" competing for time, you are free to explore your creativity, learn writing skills, and polish your craft. Of course, some of your time will be taken with other life activities and interests. But full-time work hours will be available in which to practice and perfect your writing, day after day.

Push to Potential
Committing to work at home full-time as a freelance writer triggers a structure in which to realize your total potential. By choosing writing as your main source of income, you create a self-imposed push to make money with your talents. Even if someone else's wages, or personal savings, add to your budget you will feel the drive and need to succeed financially.

Satisfaction of Curiosity
Choosing writing as a home-based business will satisfy your curiosity to know what it is like to work in the field full-time. And it will satisfy longings to give it your all, instead of part-time attention.

Freedom and Flexibility
As a full-time writer you can work nearly when, where, and how you want. Writing lends itself to any hours of the day, so you can choose to work early mornings or late evenings instead of traditional daytime hours if you wish. The computer age also has provided the means to write in different locations, indoors, or out, while remaining home-based. And the opportunity to work in surroundings you enjoy - noisy and active or quiet and still, for example.

Business Opportunities
Working from home as a full-time freelance writer will provide you with a variety of business opportunities. Options exist for writing for Internet as well as local clients, groups, and businesses. You can build additional residual writing income through royalties, commissions, bonuses etc. Or concentrate on writing projects that pay up front each time. Self-publishing books or other writings is an additional money making option.

Thanks for this, Jennifer! I write part-time for AC, but I wish I could do it full-time. Unfortunately, I just have other commitments now. Sophie
