Fall approaches and so does a more regular work routine. This issue of my newsletter discusses how I am recalibrating for fall as well as what kept me busy in July and August. I also include some news, links, and book recommendations.

If you are looking for some professional development ideas this summer, I have compiled a list of great books and other resources for running a freelance business. I would love your recommendations as well!

A key to staying on track as a freelancer and avoiding burnout is to plan your time and goals in manageable steps. Quarterly and seasonal planning are accessible ways to consider your current workload, corral all of the extras, and take into account your needs.

I love looking back at a season to think about what worked. Five things worked for me professionally and personally this winter: (1) prioritizing family, (2) working with individuals on their book projects, (3) networking, (4) enjoying the arts, and (5) watching lots of hockey.

What worked for you?

My first Substack is live as of this morning. It’s the place where I will share more granular reflections about work and life. It’s also easy to connect with people and their writing like in the early days of blogging. natalielsilver.substack.com #freelancer #editor #writer #entrepreneur #mompreneur

I had a great book coaching session with a new client yesterday. We are planning two books, both to be done by this time next year. Book coaches can not only provide valuable expertise, but they can also keep you accountable. #editor #writer #bookcoach
