""The frazzled Freelancer"" felt like someone finally put to words what I needed to hear. Author Ron Carroll's honesty and humor make this such a grounding, hopeful read. Glad I picked it up!"" - Lorraine, Toronto ""I read The Frazzled Freelancer very quickly as it was such a joy to read. As someone who has experienced the highs and lows of self employment this book was the perfect example of someone giving great solid advice but not being too prescriptive or patronising. Ron's writing style is also very entertaining which makes this the perfect handbook for anyone feeling lost in a freelance world."" - Nick, London ""The Frazzled Freelancer is a guidebook to success if you're working in the gig economy doing creative or production work. But it is also a roadmap for anyone either starting a business or looking to pivot into a new career. Primarily addressing the many roadblocks faced by those who work project-to-project, either by preference or necessity, the helpful tips and personal experiences from this seasoned entertainment professional whose been there done that and came out the other side better, wiser and happier can easily be applied to a startup founder's struggles, or someone looking to change industries or positions. The Frazzled Freelancer has a broad appeal in this regard. Carroll's road to finding peace and success was not without its many challenges and he does not shy away from sharing these vulnerabilities in hopes that his path may help others better navigate their own trajectories."" - Linda, Los Angeles
