You’ve read the about me page, you’ve flicked through my portfolio, you’ve even had a good read of my other blog, miLienzo.com, and you still want to know more?
Over the weekend I was interviewed by Ian who authors the Digital Revolution blog. He gave me quite a grilling and has now published his findings on his own blog. To find out what he discovered head over and read his interview with me.
The interview was organised as part of a group interview project between a handful of blogger-designers on the Estetica Design Forum. Other interviews that have already been published include:
Spotting those ‘thanks but no thanks’ client enquiries definitely helps, and is something I’ve also learnt how to spot.
Thankfully there haven’t been too many lately, and it always helps to direct people towards my questionnaire. Those who aren’t very serious won’t spend time answering important design questions.
David - Certainly in the early days of establishing yourself as a freelancer (which to be honest, I am in those early days) a job is a job and even the slightest interest in your services can be quite exciting. It takes a bit of discipline to stand back and weigh up what’s being asked of you before you proceed. I’m hoping the ol’ questionnaire form will help.
I’ve no doubt your questionnaire will help, and thanks for the cForms tip. Must get around to that asap.
I’ve read your interview Aaron, nice one ![]()
I wonder where are the rest of other designer interviews?
Kindda hard to track them all you know…
Audee - Hey, thanks for stopping by and commenting. I think all the interviews are done now - I liked to them all on my other blog when I interviewed Caroline Murphy.
Ah yes Aaron, I just found out..will publish the interview links round up today itself to my blog. ![]()
When using jQuery, have you ever wondered how to test whether an element exists using a selector? It’s not as simple as it seems so I thought I’d share how it’s done here.
Ten weeks since beginning self employment and my life has changed beyond recognition - sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worse. What can I tell you about being a freelancer? What’s it really like?
When I began this blog earlier this year, I made a few pledges to myself: to refrain from personal posts; to keep to a regular posting pattern; and not to mention it if I slip from that pattern. Today I throw out the rulebook.
The backlash towards table-based design has become so passionately fought over that web designers can forget that tables still play an important role in modern web design.
Many of you that have followed me for a while will know that I’ve always combined my freelance work with full-time employment. Well guess what?
