work work work
Dec. 8th, 2011 11:02 pmI super love being an independent contractor. I love getting paid to write, even if it isn't for stories, cause at least it's something I really enjoy doing. I get all of the fun I had learning new things working for KGB, and none of the blowjob/anal rape questions.
So far, my editor has given me kickass feedback. You know when an editor refers to your work as AMAZING in all caps, you're sitting pretty. As long as I make my deadline tomorrow, I should be well set up for more assignments from this client.
BUT WHY OH WHY AM I SUCH A PROCRASTINATOR?
I'm seriously terrible at this. I left 150 questions to do tonight before I go to bed. It's because I work for about half an hour at one go, doing about 15 questions during that time, and then I take a 'break' and forget about it until the next day! It's like putting off homework. Except I get paid for this! Yeesh.
Meridan is very pleased with my working from home. He keeps telling me that I seem made to do this kind of thing and that even if I don't make much money, it's at least something. Honestly, at $75 an assignment, I don't have to do many assignments to get to my previous salary - I was only bringing home about $400 a month. And I can charge more later after I get a good client base established.
Anyways. Seeing as how this is just yet another form of procrastination, imma gonna shut up.
