So, I’m just about to embark on my fourth week as a freelance writer. I’ve learned a few things in this time, but most importantly, I’ve discovered that if you send an email, make sure you have regular access to the account you sent it from.

D’oh! I enquired to a website recently about a potential opening that would result in regular work. I’ve been checking for days now for a response, thinking it had been captured in my boxtrapper. In the event, it seems I sent it from an email account I use only occasionally.

As such I think there is very little chance of my reply being taken seriously. Pretty annoying, but hey, what can you do? In the meantime, I’ll simply have to use that extra effort to finish off the upcoming Kasterborous book…
