Working as a freelance creative is very different from having an employer. Working on a freelance basis means you work for someone else, under contract, for a designated or ongoing time period. Freelancers sell their skills and time by the hour or by a contracted project price.

Being A Freelance Creative Means:

	flexible work hours, but dedication to your routine
	decisionmaking power
	insurance (health, disability, homeowners) is your responsibility
	working from client or home office
	control over your working life regarding hours, variety of work etc.
	no guaranteed incoming work, possibly some quiet periods
	potential to earn more
	professional freedom and independence
	can be lonely, particularly if you are home-based
	increased responsibility to succeed
