  • 31 Days of Freelancing: Add One More Skill

    What I’m listening to: Domino by Van Morrison Thursday already? I best you’re still scrambling to get your holiday plans in order. Maybe you’re working on a project in hopes it will be done before tomorrow. Either way, there’s probably some down time you’ve been wanting needing. Today is your day. Today, give yourself permission…

  • 31 Days of Freelancing: The Client-Winning Trick

    What I’m listening to: Rocking by Roger Whittaker It’s getting real now. Today’s the winter solstice. The shortest day of the year. The day I look forward to because every day beyond this one means the sun will take a little longer to set every night. It’s all uphill from here. Then there’s that holiday…

  • 31 Days of Freelancing: A More Persistent Freelancer

    What I’m listening to: Honey I Been Thinking About You by Jackie Greene Wow, just a few more days until the holidays, both Christmas and Hannukkah. And Kwanzaa. It seems the planets are all aligned this year. This is my week to disappear until after the holiday. If it’s yours too, have a great time…

  • 31 Days of Freelancing: Reliving the Past

    What I’m listening to: The Loneliness and The Scream by Frightened Rabbit Last Monday before the holidays erupt. I’m not ready. I always think I am, but then I realize there are several more things to do around the house, there’s always one more client project to clear up (that goes out today, I hope),…

  • 31 Days of Freelancing: Reaching Your Goals

    What I’m listening to: Hardliners by Holcombe Waller Happy Sunday! I hope your weekend is going well. I had most of my shopping for the holiday done weeks ago (and I’m a cyber shopper), so today for me is about relaxing, reading, and wrapping. But it’s also a good time to think about how to…

  • 31 Days of Freelancing: Set That Goal

    What I’m listening to: All You Ever Do Is Bring Me Down by The Mavericks Saturday. Why do I always say it like I’m exhaling? It’s one busy time of year. Probably the worst time to stick one more business item on your list. And yet it’s the best time to do it. Things are…

  • 31 Days of Freelancing: Going Local

    What I’m listening to: Blunderbuss by Jack White One more week of work. Unless, of course, you’re taking it easy next week. Or this month. Whatever your pleasure is (I hope). Since it’s Friday, your mind might not be on freelancing or work of any sort. But maybe you feel a little pang of guilt…

  • 31 Days of Freelancing: The LinkedIn Network No-No

    What I’m listening to: Burn by Usher Having a good month so far? I’m in the middle of doing something I haven’t had to do in a while — chase a payment. It’s not as though the client didn’t communicate post-project, but the silence after two emails (one including the invoice) isn’t sitting well. Time…

  • 31 Days of Freelancing: Your Press Release

    What I’m listening to: The Busker by We Invented Paris How’s December going for you? Busier than you thought, or slower? I’m seeing a slow, but steady pace. Small projects — an article, a blog post, a sales letter. It’s giving me time to get to the things I’ve been wanting to do. Those things…

  • 31 Days of Freelancing: The Good Enough Moment

    What I’m listening to: Get Outta My Head by Brett Dennen Wow, this month is flying, isn’t it? It’s only because there’s a ton of shopping and baking and things work-related that it feels like 24 hours in one day just aren’t enough. And yet there’s still time to do what we want to, isn’t…
