Today has been an odd day.
After months and doing two jobs simultaneously, one job finished totally and the other … well, the other was paused while I waited for approval.
So yesterday I finished off a pitch thing, hopefully it’ll go somewhere, but you never know – can’t invest too much in them personally.
Today was chatting to a writer about a project I’ll be starting soon (back to two simultaneous projects) but can’t make any sort of start on it, because, well, he hasn’t.
Tomorrow heading off to spend a day with a tv production company about storyboards (A while ago I found where all the local tv/media people hung out on facebook and asked if they wanted any free storyboarding from a 2000ad veteran, got a bunch of requests and did as much as I could – if I had the time I’d still be pursuing a lot of these, there was paying work in there, but finding it was time consuming. One production company though, offered me paying work off the bat, and tomorrow is more of it).
Kids off school due to the Hurricane that hardly happened (why where the off today? who knows) and for one brief moment my wife and kids were all out of the house, and for the first time in several months I had literally no work to do.
Finally got approval an hour or so on the pencils for the big project, and of course, the delay has made me a little late, so tomorrow it’s back in to it.
But that weird feeling of having nothing on sort of haunts me. Like a freelancer’s nightmare.
