At $10/hr you'll only attract the worst kind of clients: those who think that your time is not valuable, that will try to scam you, that will try to get you to do stuff for free. You'll also have the problem that freelancing at $10/hr simply isn't sustainable. Keep in mind that you have to do your taxes and probably need help with that, need equipment, etc. I assume you still live at home so you don't have expenses like rent, food, insurances, pension payments, etc. That being said, good luck. And keep doubling your prices as soon as you get more work than you want to handle.
