While everyone is awfully merry this time of the year, business is about as slow as it gets for a freelance writer. That compounded with a "rebounding" economy (notice the hopeful wording) has made for a really slow year.
My usual end-of-the year blip of business around October/November when folks are trying to use up what's left of their annual budget was pretty small this year.
By now everyone has pretty much wrapped things up until January.
My Christmas wish: For Barack to turn the economy around by the time my littlest one goes to Kindergarten plumping marketing and publishing budgets enough for freelance writers like me to get some substantial work.
A girl can wish, right?
