No Joke: I Pulled In Over $50k in 9 Months as a Freelancer. Here’s How.
Growing up, I was taught never to talk about money or — especially — salaries. If I asked, I’d hear words like, “rude”, “none of your business,” and “that’s information for grownups.” Well, it’s now 2021, and times have certainly changed.
Here’s a piece I wrote about how I got into freelancing, including how much I make doing it.
Hope this helps anyone looking for information and inspiration. Let’s just hope I don’t get spanked for sharing.

What’s the difference between an artist’s bio and an artist’s statement? In this August 2020 presentation to the members of Evanston Made (www.evanstonmade.org), I break down the process into manageable chunks so you can identify your unique strengths and describe them in a way to help you connect to your audience — and beyond.
