Picking up where the freelancer bibles stop, SOLO addresses what we gain but also miss when we shift from the structure of an office environment to the solitary confines of our homes or studios. Blending the latest research in psychology, economics and social science with guided self-examination and more than ten years of freelance experience, Rebecca Seal shows you how to stay resilient, productive and focused in a company of one.

It contrives to be kind, realistic and genuinely helpful, all without lapsing into business speak and psychobabble.
