My first real new part-time freelance job since starting off this season as a social media manager … got the phone call yesterday afternoon. And I did that whole jumping up and down thing. It really was very exciting.

I’ve actually had three meetings this past week with tapas bars/restaurants that I feel could use my services, and I showed up with everything set up and with my presentation totally organised and – I hope – interesting. Made me realise more than ever that I’ve got to get myself an iPad…

But otherwise and that, I have a new job! And the great thing is that this job didn’t actually exist until I created it, packaged it up in an interesting way, and then went out and convinced a few people they really needed and wanted this, and that I was the best person to set it up and maintain it for them. This is a really big step for me. I mean, sure, it’s just part-time, but with a few more of these I could maybe end up being something resembling full-time.. maybe.
