Thanks for Freelancing

Are freelancers thankful for their freelance careers or do they bemoan their lone wolf status?

  1. Some freelancers have more to be thankful than others. UK-based freelance prop-maker Rachel Crook, whose work includes a large-scale ostrich she created for Topshop, has more offers than she can take.
  2. 4 freelance jobs turned down in as many weeks, it's a shame I can't just work everywhere! I'm thankful for constant creative work #luckygirl
  3. Kitchenmouth Kate shrugged off turkey-basting for freelancing.
  4. Im thankful for this day to catch up on all my freelance work thats stacked up. Those who cant cook? Edit.
  5. I saw Slate editor Laura Helmuth's shout out to her freelancers after Adam Penenberg retweeted it, which spawned the idea for this post. Freelancers are thankful for Laura's sentiment.
  6. Thankful for freelance writers. You people rock.
  7. Freelance film critic Jordan Hoffman gets my stamp of approval for how to survive as a freelancer: low overhead.
  8. This year I'm thankful for keeping my overhead so low I can keep the dream job of freelance critic. Let's see how long this lasts.
  9. Arizona-based freelance makeup artist Stephanie posted a photo of herself practicing her craft.
  10. I'ver overly #thankful for my career as a freelance makeup artist! Here is a snapsot of me helping one of my students. http://pic.twitter.com/y9jl9aCK
  11. Sarah Frantz is a freelance editor who specializes in romance, and she is thankful for those who pay her.
