Freelancers Survival Guide: Postponing Your Dreams
Artwork donated by Pati Nagle. The Freelancer’s Survival Guide: Postponing Your Dreams Kristine Kathryn Rusch Sometimes I have to wonder if I was a history major and am a science fiction writer because I see patterns in what Thomas Jefferson called “the course of human events” or if I see patterns because I had training in both history and science fiction. I suppose that’s one of those unanswerable questions. But the one thing that is clear is that my mind doesn’t work like other people’s.

Freelancer’s Survival Guide: Flexibility
Artwork donated by Pati Nagle. The Freelancer’s Survival Guide: Flexibility Kristine Kathryn Rusch Earlier this week, I sat down with my notes and figured out how much more I had to write on the Freelancer’s Guide. I have about seven weeks of material (counting this week)—and that’s if those topics don’t become multiple posts, like Success was. As usual, my prediction a few months ago about finishing soon was right on schedule—meaning it came smack dab in the middle of the project to make the fact that I still had half of the work to go much more palatable. My husband can tell you that I do this with every book I work on. When I hit the middle, I think I’m done (and I used to just end my … Read entire article »
