The business of Rebekah

I've got to be honest, I'm getting interested in the prospect of being a freelancer. I like the idea of having a business, of being a business. It elevates the discourse beyond the idea of "getting a job", and puts me in a position to think about my mission, my vision, my one-year and five-year and ten year plans, of actually trying to design my work and my life. I have always allowed work to dominate my life, and, by extension, allowed my employer to dominate my life. I'd like to take back some of that control.
I think I'm going to begin crafting a business plan, and then try to implement it even if I eventually get a full-time staff position somewhere. Let's see how it goes.
