Hi Colleagues & Friends,
As I look back to that fine morning in December 2008, when I decided to join the Fast Track Course at Technowrites, I begin to think that it has been my privilege to be associated with Technowrites and with Makarand Sir. Now, while reaping the benefits of my classroom training as well as of my hands-on experience as a trainee Technical Writer, I just think why Technowrites doesn't start a course on freelancing? Right from the days when I was working as a Content Writer, I used to think that I should also work as a freelancer. But I didn't know how to lift this idea off the ground. I didn't have proper information about starting a freelancing career.
As Technowrites has already carved a niche for itself in the world of Technical Communication, conducting a course on freelancing won't be a big deal for it. In fact, it would earn some more brownie points in this lesser explored area also. (Frankly, I'm not aware of any institute in India that conducts a course on freelancing). But I think, Makarand Sir, who has worked as a freelancer in the past, can carry this idea to its triumphant completion. I look forward to Makarand Sir, to initiate us, the ever enthusiastic lot, into the field of freelancing.
Friends, again, your esteemed ideas and suggestions are always welcome!
Keep writing,
Onkar
