If you've ever wondered what freelancing is like as a copywriter, then I'm happy to give you a glimpse into my daily schedule!
Drumroll, please!
6:30 am- alarm goes off, hit snooze, begrudgingly roll out of bed,
8:00 am - drop kids off at school
8:30 am - consume large quantities of caffeine. (soda, not coffee-blech!)
9:00 am- 3:00 pm: work, basking in the joy of a silent and interruption-free household
3:00 pm: kids come home, pause work for general mayhem
3:30 pm: try to write, put in earplugs to ignore constant shrieking and fighting
4:00 pm- get interrupted five times to answer questions about homework, dinner, laundry, etc
4:30 pm: ear plugs lose the battle to the noise; admit defeat
7:30 pm: put kids to bed
8:00 pm- watch an episode of Stranger Things
9:30 pm- realize the house is quiet again; keep working
11:00 pm- Ahhh! Reading time! This week I'm hoping to start The Golden Enclaves by Naomi Novik.
12:00 Midnight-Zzzzzzzz
What about you? Do your schedule and your work life look different than they did two years ago?
