Hello! I'm new to Upwork as of today and glad to be here. I look forward to building a steady stream of clients whom I can help with writing- and editing-related projects, whether it be ghostwriting stakeholder emails/responses, presentations and website content or developing comprehensive messaging and Q&A, press releases and case studies. I also have deep roots in travel/tourism and hospitality public relations and would be glad to lend my guidance or lean into pitches and the like.
Questions for the group: How many attempts did it take before you landed your first job? How extensive are your proposals? Much of my writing has been confidential. Some of it went through a few other folks before being finalized, so it isn't 100% my own. Thoughts on how to showcase my work with these caveats?
For fun: I wasn't raised with the Oxford comma, but I can certainly get on board with it! How about you?

My name is Timothy Mwangi Muchanchi from Kenya. I am not a writer but i got big imaginations. When am alone, i am my own motivator. I look back where i have come from and am glad that i have reached this far. My dream was and still is to make money so that i may go to school and help my mom (a widow) pay her loans that she currently has due to her supprting my studies. Widows are neglescted and are forgotten in our society. Most of the time the society would want to dis-inherit them.
I write this in the realization of the power of a woman. A widow or a single mom work tirelessly to feed, educate and nature the talents of their children.
What i have learnt from up work, it's not easy to land a job or even land one at all. But the Upwork academy has by far taught me things that i never knew. Pros and Cons of how to get a job and how to make my profile more exciting.
From other freelancers, to those that have jobs, i would love their referral and also if i can work under them.
About business process, i would like first to work under a genuine freelancer who is or not affiliated to my career. Hopefully by the grace of God i will love to get one. Thanks.

I am Rubina and I have been a content writer. Keen to write and learn about new things. I have been there since the website was named as ODesk. However, I was not an active member. Now I have started work on this platform again and receiving good responses from clients. Hoping to have more soon.

Good morning!
I joined Upwork to make money. To make money from what I enjoy doing the most, the job I'm most skilled at, the work that keeps me from getting bored. I have over 20 years of experience in technical writing, learning and development, and managing teams. I am a pandemic victim.
Laid off in November 2020 I am still trying to secure full-time work. I struggle every day trying to decide whether I should start my own business, continue freelancing while looking for a full-time job, or compromise my well-being by taking a job just to keep the lights on.
2023 has not been progressing the way I hoped - unexpected deaths, a continued lack of funds, stolen vehicles, and losing friends. Joining Upwork and several of its communities is hope - hope for a better future, a future without compromise nor eviction but one that finally turns the events of the last three years around from struggle to prosperity.
What do other freelancers spend their time on between projects? How do you bid on jobs without compromising your worth? Why do you freelance? Whom do you follow that produces the most value? Where do you work from that turns out your best work? What do you do to keep from getting depressed or to relieve anxiety? These are the things I need to learn from other freelancers.
I have been fortunate to attain a couple of interviews since joining. Had life not interfered, I feel I would have landed one of those opportunities. However, I also think "forces at play" provided interference for a reason. So I will continue to study the platform and the intricacies of how it works. If anyone knows the formula for driving offers toward me and winning bids, please share your expertise with the community (tagging me gets my attention).
Thanks for the ear.
P.S. I sound like I have the Monday blues but I don't. Grammarly shows my confidence, curiousity, and directness indexes to be slightly higher than a kite. I'm not re-writing this post. But I will try again tomorrow (probably in a different community). Jaha 🤷🏼:female_sign:

Hello,
I joined Upwork in 2021, and have been slowly building my portfolio and writing skills. I'm excited to join the community and meet other writers. I've learned that being on Upwork is a numbers game. There are a lot of proposals and jobs that don't go anywhere, so you just keep at it.

Greetings, Everyone.
Please feel free to call me K.
There is ONE thing I wish you all to know.
I can hear any instrumental track, hell, even a measure and I can think of the lyrics of a song. I can be told what the artist wishes to convey and I can write a song. One song at a time. One measure is all I need. I get the inspiration by the artist need, desire and passion for the tract. What do you wish to convey? Tell me what you ar feeling. I CAN create your song. Your poetry.
