Surviving the Workday

I’ve been playing with this freelance calculator, which calculates both what you should charge and what you need to break even. It’s sort of a general calculator for all sorts of work from using a tractor to remove cement from a broken up driveway to writing. More specifically, I also use common rates for editorial services from the Editorial Freelancer’s Association on a regular basis to judge rates. Keep in mind the more technical the work, the higher you go in that pay scale. And, truth be told, I tend to stay away from hourly work because I work quickly. Interesting to play with though.
