Adventures In Freelancing

I've spent the last few weeks brainstorming ideas for this blog and spreading the word to my friends.  I've also contacted some fabulous people, who've donated some amazing prizes to help the newbie freelancer begin or advance their career.  Here's a list of what I will be giving away in the first weeks of the launch of Adventures in Freelancing and a shout out to the wonderful people who donated the prizes.
