Going Solo
No, no, not me. Or at least not except during the summers and weekends. But there is a fun-looking one-day conference on May 16th called Going Solo, all about the process of becoming a successful freelancer in a world that seems to be moving us all in that direction. They have some well-known speakers lined up and are looking for some other possibilities.
I would love to head out to Lausanne for the day and spend the rest of the weekend skiing. School’s out by then, but I’m afraid the Falcon 50 is scheduled for its annual, and I really can’t be bothered with commercial carriers these days.
