Since setting a goal at the beginning of the year, I’ve made 3 attempts to get my first paid developer work. These are the big takeaways and things I’ve learned:
- Know when to not accept a project, even if you’re just trying to get a foot in the door.
- Get the site content from the client as early in the process as possible to avoid project delays.
- An “approved” prototype does not mean there won’t still be changes after I do a lot of coding!
- Working to milestones (with specific dates) and showing work at each milestone is better than sharing work in progress.
- I got a good handle on how much time freelance projects actually take me.
- When estimating how much to charge, don’t forget about the time you’ll spend on the project for things other than coding. Calls, check-ins, revisions, and training may add to the project time and you should be paid accordingly.

I was getting set to record a second ‘stumbling block’ episode when I went back to the podcast episodes I recorded last year when I first had these difficulties, and instead was reminded of the things I found helpful at that time to get out of the funk and keep making progress.
The first was remem…

I’m heading to a coding conference in a few days! And unlike some past events I’ve been to, this time I’m doing a bit of preparatory thinking/planning to help me make the most out of attending. I’ve set 3 goals I’d like to accomplish during the two-day conference.

Introduction overload! There are plenty of good introductory workshops, blog posts, and articles out there. But is it too much of a good thing? Recently I’ve felt like the sheer number of articles and events have been taking away from my efforts to become a developer.
