Great thread of responses on here. Kudos Kristen!

I feel one day closer to my goal every day. I set a time limit for myself too, so that helps. All that needs doing is preparation and I'll continue the hard work. I guess freelancing and copy writing won't be intrinsically good for society, but I'm hoping to write for clients in industries that are doing good both socially and ecologically, so if I can help them flourish, then I'll feel good about that along with working for myself doing something I love.
