Cory Doctorow wrote a wonderful article for Locus magazine, "Writing in the Age of Distraction " with some solid advice for writers. In my experience, he's got excellent advice for any freelancer: set small, reasonable goals, don't over extend yourself in your effort to be productive, work simply, work a little every day, if you don't feel like working on a project . . . still work everyday.
It's the kind of advice I learned after grinding out my comic strip every week for six years and torturing myself with years of over extending myself and wasted time in front of the computer. I wish someone had told me some of this advice much earlier.
