We all have something that motivates us to start a blog.
For a lot of us, that motivation is the dream of being liberated from our 9-5 job and make money from the comfort of our own home.

I still remember my first day as a freelance blogger/writer pretty clearly, even though it was some years ago.

I was recently asked:
