As a freelancer, I'm always on the look-out for books that can help me. Unfortunately, this isn't one. It's mostly the author's own self-indulgent musings, along with a few conversations she's had with others. There's no real research and the advice is mostly obvious things like saving money before you go solo. Maybe I had too high expectations given the author's background, but the book seems like a rush job. It doesn't even have an index, which made it even harder to find what little useful information the book contains. A real disappointment.
