Meetup with other local freelancers. Network, discuss freelancers' issues, barter, find a space-share, and make new friends! Freelancers Union provides info and resources for officially sponsored freelance Meetups.
C'mon, freelancing people. Let's come out of the woodwork in November to get this Meetup kick-started. We can get wired on caffeine from Java Brewing Co. and hatch a scheme to take over the world. Or ... we can exchange business cards, brainstorm ways to get new clients, and discuss reasonable rates for our work in this rotten economy. (It's six of one, half a dozen of the other anyway. Right?)
This group doesn't have any additional upcoming Meetups scheduled.
Support a Meetup group while getting exposure to active, local members.

“ Freelancers have it hard right now with businesses cutting back on contract work. We need to join forces and support our freelancers and this is a great way to do it. ...
