I am totally getting off on the whole freelance thing. I get to do research, and write all in the comfort of my own home. There are days when I've forgotten to brush my teeth until two in the afternoon. I know this is making me sound really hot, but try to control yourselves.
When I really want to feel like a grown-up, I go to my workdesk page at the DemandStudios website, and click the tab that says "My Published Work."
I have gotten to the point where it takes me a little more than an hour to complete the research, writing, and documentation for a particular piece. I'd like to be able three $15.00 pieces in two hours. That would make an hourly rate of $22.50, which would be not too far off what I was making before. Except I don't need to go anywhere, dress nicely, or do parent-teacher conferences.
