- About Me:
- My name is Peter Bowerman and I’m a commercial freelancer (that would be writing for businesses, large and small, and for rates of $50-125+ an hour), speaker, business coach, and self-publishing author.
In 1994, I started out as a commercial freelancer with NO writing background, experience or training; I’d never written anything for money. I was paying all my bills in less than four months, and I spent the next seven years collecting the all the how-to detail about my field.
I self-published the 2000 award-winning Book-of-the-Month Club selection, The Well-Fed Writer, and its 2005 companion volume, TWFW: Back For Seconds (both self-published; www.wellfedwriter.com). Those two books have become how-to “standards” on starting a lucrative commercial freelancing business.
I then chronicled my self-publishing success (52,000 copies of my first two books in print and a full-time living for over five years) in my third book – and the focus of these blog posts – the award-winning 2007 release, The Well-Fed Self-Publisher: How to Turn One Book into a Full-Time Living. www.wellfedsp.com.
Many have said that writing is a career path of dubious financial prospects.
I’ve earned a handsome living making a lie of that conventional wisdom. And I’ve done it in two writing arenas: “commercial” freelancing AND self-publishing.
