Tales (or Tails?) of Freelancing with Dogs

0630d.jpgYou know my theory that successful freelancers have either kids or dogs to keep them on schedule? Jen Miller agrees. “I adopted myself a dog in December, in part because I work at home all day long, and she forces me to get out,” Jen says. “Emily (who I also call my ‘boss’) is a jack russell terrier/something mix, and she forces me to take a break instead of sitting at my desk all day long. Plus, whenever I’m stuck, I take her for a walk. Sometimes she gets A LOT of walks!”
That’s Emily up in the corner. Does your dog also keep you on track? What about your kids? Do you have a non-dog, non-kid method that works for you? Tell me about it – I’d love to hear it. annielogue@gmail.com
