I took a leap ....

Off the edge of my self sabotage and endless fear of rejection and applied for a writing gig that I truly believe I can do.


However, my resume is crap because I have no professional writing experience. If they base it off my resume I won't get a response. I submitted two samples of writing and ...so far, nothing.


I am nervous and anxious over it. I don't expect to get the gig, eventhougb I am confident I can do the work. This makes me angry...that I will fail because I couldn't produce a better looking resume.

I want to puke from nerves and disappointment in myself.
Don't look at it as a failure, look at it as a result. We learn from results. While you can't change your work history, you can maybe tweak your included samples?
btw, I miss you 馃

I wish you luck. You can build up a writing resume by trying short stories for Medium. It does not pay, but if you can do it in your spare time, you will have something to point potential employers to. Or you can try your local paper.

Do they just ignore such applications? That's kinda rude. 馃槙
