Feast or Famine!

Tuesday March 25, 2008

I know you've heard this a million times, but this freelance life is so very much feast or famine, isn't it?

I purposely tried to schedule myself so that I could enjoy a trip to Florida at the end of this week. Well, here it is Tuesday and I have not much on my plate. Can I take on something? Not if I want to sit poolside in Florida with my kiddos! So here I am blogging, reading and doing administrative tasks to fill empty hours. When I come back, I'll be like a freelancing madwoman again. I'm not much of a fan of freelance scheduling right now!

I am, however, a fan of Freelance Switch. They just released an interview with freelance writer and author Michelle Goodman (whom I adore!) I previously reviewed Goodman's book The Anti 9-5 and very much think you should read it :)

LOL! Allena, you’re just like I was a few weeks ago. I took a day off - a freakin’ day off - and I couldn’t relax! We writers are like sharks; we have to keep moving in order to survive… ;) )
