I’ve freelanced for just over a year. The dream was always to have time to work on my stuff. To sit in a cafe and work and to be able to go for runs in the middle of the day. It hasn’t happened yet but on the 1st of March it will. For a short while at least.
Wednesday is my last day at the BBC and exactly one week after on the 7th, I’m off to Austin and SXSW Interactive. I could have tried to squeeze in a few days of work but since I’m not back from the US until the 18th of March I decided to make the most of this time. Enjoy it and work on my own stuff. Or our stuff as it now is.
We’ve made some lovely progress over the last couple of weeks and having SXSW as a deadline has been great, if somewhat hectic. But going over there I will have things to show and I’ll be able to say our name out loud and describe what we do.
I’m childishly excited to be spending the next week here in London getting things ready and then 10 days over in Austin and NYC meeting people and talking about what we’re about. It’s a little dream come true.
Tomorrow – Day 059 | Doing a bit of everything
