Gettin’ Paid
At the start of the year, I posted some advice on how I use Trello to track my project work. Since then, those posts have been referenced several times by other freelancers and contractors, and they’re some of the most-read on my site. As such, I’ve added a Freelancer Advice category to help me share more information … Continue reading Gettin’ Paid →

Card Game: Tactical War

Peer Review: “A Scandal in Bohemia” by Petr Kopl
