Feast and Famine

I’ve said more than once that there are two basic states in the freelancing life:  the state of too much work and the state of not enough money.  Usually it’s either one or the other, though sometimes, painfully, it can be both at once.

In theory, there should also exist a balancing state of not enough work and too much money, but I don’t think freelancers get to go there.

(Which is a roundabout way of saying that I have a backlog of editorial work that I need to get done, so for the next little while my entries here may be somewhat brief.)
