Seems impossible for us starters. Especially that a lot of freelancers these days created a base line of 20–30$ per 1k words. For us in PH, clients even haggles it down to the lowest point you could possibly think (5$ /1k words). That’s why I decided to blog for my own thoughts and experiences, instead of writing for others who probably don’t have an idea that writing is not as easy as a ranting on Twitter.
