Submit a Question to Rough Draft
Just getting started with freelancing? Feeling stuck and looking for direction? 

Submit your question to Rough Draft's advice column!*

Written by Sam Lauron (that's me!), Rough Draft is a bi-weekly newsletter that's part personal blog, part advice column, and part career exploration. 

In 2019, I went all in on freelancing and spent years figuring out my niche, experimenting with rates, and figuring out client dynamics. I almost quit many times, but 6+ years in, I can say I'm confident, comfortable, and stable in my career. Now I'm sharing my tips and insights so you can feel the same way! 

This is a space to ask questions that you can't find on Google. 

Questions freelancers have asked me before include: 

1. Is it okay to switch niches?
2. How can I be taken seriously as a multi-hyphenate?
3. I don't have any experience for my portfolio; how do I even get clients?

*Your question may be featured in a future issue of Rough Draft as part of my advice column, but your personal information will remain anonymous.
