From the page: "Did you realize that Stephen King was an expert on the art of freelancing? Neither did I until I read Salem's Lot. Surprisingly, King's vampire novel has quite a bit to teach."

Don't get caught working with someone who sucks the life blood out of you. Good read!

At one point in the novel, one of the characters has the choice of whether to act on his faith in the Good or to rely just on his tools. It turns out that in a battle between good and evil, tools aren't much good without faith. The same thing is true for freelancers. Even if you've got your technical skills down to perfection, it doesn't matter a bit if you don't have faith in the Goodness of your work.

From post "There are three ways out of a situation gone bad... 1) You can stay, fight, and die a miserable death. 2) You can stay, fight, and (barely) survive. 3) You can run and hope that it doesn't catch up to you. "
