The Golden Pencil: The Freelance Writer’s Resource

Freelance Writers - On-site vs. Off

by Anne Wayman on June 10th, 2008

blog.jpgJennifer Williamson who owns her own writing service and blogs about it all at CatalystBlogger recently took a temporary full-time, on-site writing job even though she’d promised herself and the world she wouldn’t ever do that again.

She tells the story in a post called: On-Site Writing vs. Freelancing: The Showdown

As she points out, it doesn’t have to be all or nothing. She then lists some benefits of on-site work and some drawbacks. Included in her benefits is Quick feedback on your work. And, apparently, in this on-site job that’s what she got, often in a matter of hours. My experience on-site has been different. Feedback in offices where I’ve written has often taken as long as it does with clients.

Of course, I identify with the drawbacks. I’m truly a committed freelancer who never ever wants to see the inside of an office on a regular basis again.

What do you think? What are advantages to on-site work?

Write well and often,
