N.C. Winters is always drawing. When he isn't making comics, doodling or working as a freelance graphic artist, he spends his time painting pretty pictures for galleries from his home studio in sunny southern California.
Actually, I find fulltime freelance does have some drawbacks. Chances are the guy on the left doesn’t have health insurance, and he seems to always have weeks where he’s not working. Ok, maybe I’m a little bitter.
PS: Thanks for this awesome blog! seriously! You guys always write about what to do when you are a freelancer, but almost never of *how* to start being one! Well yeah I have read the great ‘10 reasons why you should be one’, the truth is it only got me to drool more Can you have just a little more of those how tos
It’s so true! However, I usually get the commentary about how people think I sit and eat bon bons and watch soaps all day. They’re starting to take it seriously, though. Love these comics!
Its true if you can pull yourself away. I am finding I put in practically twice as many hours as I did for a company. The only upside is I am getting paid for all those hours.
Haha! I find it amusing!
Thanks for sharing.
Great comic!
Hehe! it’s so true
haha nice =)
LOL!

I laughed really hard at this because it’s just like a conversation I had with my mother a while back
Yeah freelance rocks! Funny comic! xD
I LOVE this – and yes, it is SO very true! Excellent comic, N.C.!

I’ve found myself in that situation several times!

Freelance is not always bear and skittles though, it does have its downfalls…
I am currently chasing two clients for money
This exact situation has occurred multiple times with me (on the left in this comic). I love freelance
When will this day come?!!!

Sigh…. I still work both a 9 – 5 and freelance. Soon to break that barrier though…I can taste it. And it tastes like freedom.
(it also tastes a little like bon bons)
Eheh really funny and totally true!
Good comic
Made me laugh
