Our next guest blogger is Genesis Davies from At Home Mom Blog. We highly recommend her blog to all our readers; as the name implies, her blog also tackles the issues of being a successful freelancer and simply being a good parent!
As work at home parents, it is very easy to get [...]

Hello, world. First of all, I’d like to thank you for the wonderful congratulatory wishes. Baby Dot is doing well. She just weighed in at eight pounds yesterday, and I think most of that weight is in her adorably chubby little cheeks! I had a somewhat tough recovery, but things have [...]

This is a topic I’ve been going back and forth on regarding whether or not I wanted to discuss it here on Freelance Parent. On the one hand, it’s not the most “professional” conversation I’ve ever had on this blog; it’s not going to help you find work or write better. On the other hand, [...]

We become freelancers for a variety of reasons. One, you get to work for a great boss. Two, you can work from the comfort of your own home. Three, no one cares how far down your personal hygiene standards go.
Another big reason I often hear freelancers giving for their career choice is the freedom that [...]

Today’s guest post is brought to you by James Chartrand, blogger extraordinare from Men with Pens. We’re excited to have him join us for two main reasons: one, his blog almost always opens my eyes up to some wonderful information; and two, he is male. Yes, the male perspective is often sadly lacking on Freelance Parent, so it’s our honor to have him join us today.
If you’re reading this, [...]

It’s been awhile since my last post. I could regale you with a long, frustration-riddled tale of down telephone lines and repeated internet malfunctions, but I won’t. Let’s just say I’ve been unable to access the regular world of communication for much longer than is good for a freelancer’s career.
Unfortunately, these things happen, and they [...]

Rachel Kaufman is the next exciting guest blogger in our line up. Despite the fact that she has no kids (hey – Lorna technically didn’t have any until a few weeks ago), we are really excited to have her join us. She is a freelance features writer based in Washington DC and runs A Like [...]

Today’s guest post comes to you from Laura Spencer, one of our favorite bloggers (and a woman who covers much of the same territory as Freelance Parent — namely, being a parent and running a business). Laura has been a freelance writer for the past six years. She blogs at Work From Home Momma , [...]

Awhile back, I made it through to my favorite radio station’s morning contest. It’s called “Win Dave’s Money,” and it works in much the same way that “Win Ben Stein’s Money” does, except it’s on the radio and lasts thirty seconds.
Anyway, I was ecstatic to get through, and, of course, sounded like a complete idiot [...]
