  1. Article about writer's envy is very interesting, however, i'm also agree that if you want to continue developing as a freelance writer you must be compatative and must not be afraid of a new challanges. If you have an essay writing jobs you alredy know about such contest as NaNiMo or 53-word story contest. Participating in those kind of event can be really great opportunity for you.
