about this author
Hey there. I'm author of "My So-Called Freelance Life: How to Survive and Thrive as a Creative Professional for Hire" and "The Anti 9-to-5 Guide: Practical Career Advice for Women Who Think Outside the Cube." My articles and essays about alternative careers, human mating rituals, and cultural trends have graced media outlets such as ABCNews.com, CNN.com, Salon.com, The Seattle Times, BUST, Bitch, The Bark, and several anthologies. I live in Seattle with my office manager, Buddy (he's a black lab). For more scoop on my so-called freelance life, visit me at http://www.anti9to5guide.com.

review of My So-Called Freelance Life: How to Survive and Thrive as a Creative Professional for Hire:
