  1. 1

    Today, at 23 years old, I'm reflecting on my college days and how much I loved freelance writing. Back then, I was ghostwriting for clients I found on social media, and it was the happiest I’ve ever been. That work helped me cover my college fees, buy a used laptop, and even afford a cheap motorcycle, which unfortunately broke down this year. Due to family issues, I had to shift my focus away from college and eventually dropped out. After that, I took a job as a sales and marketing executive, but I got laid off two months ago along with half the marketing team. They called it "downsizing to relocate sources towards a more future-ready approach," which really just meant they were replacing us with AI. Now, I'm desperately trying to find content writing or ghostwriting jobs, but it's tough. I can't prove my experience as a ghostwriter because I didn't keep track of my work. I’m applying everywhere, willing to work overtime and even accept lower pay. I just need someone to give me a chance and help me get back into freelance writing.
