Project management for freelance writers
2 min read · Updated September 29, 2026
Writing has a pipeline
Pitches, commissions, drafts, and edits move at different speeds. Statuses help you see where each piece sits.
Group by client or publication
Each outlet or content client becomes a client in your tracker. This helps you see who sends the most work.
Track follow-ups as tasks
Unanswered pitches and overdue invoices are easy to forget. Add a follow-up task with a due date.
Keep notes with the work
Store the brief, word count, and style notes in the task. See how to write a client brief.
