The time has come...

Gone are the days of luxury! A regular paycheck! Guaranteed work! The scary days of freelancing have arrived.

The past few weeks have been hectic but I have got to the stage now that I am ready to work. I have moved into a new flat, we have the Internet, my CV is ready and translated, various different cover letters are ready and translated, I have sent off a couple of applications, I have a list of old contacts, I am keeping track of my costs, I have a letter head and I have a website! I have updated my LinkedIn, I have a Facebook, a Twitter, 

a Proz account, I am trying very hard to join a professional association. I have some #translation software and a computer that works. I have an appointment to open a bank account. I feel ready(ish)! What else do you need to be a #freelancetranslator?

Now is the scary part. Will I get work? Will I get paid enough to survive on? Will I get paid as much as (I think) I deserve?
Well I guess it's time to find out!
