I wish you the best... I'm also fairly new... to the freelance business and I find ProZ very helpful in many ways. When you begin the most difficult is to find the first job (ie someone willing to work with you/hire you with no experience...) I got my first job in-house 4 years ago and it was a blast I was thrilled that they were willing to train and support me, etc. After that you have something to back you up and so on... Good luck!
