Monday, 8:15. Coffee is actually hot. Nothing is on fire. The week is already laid out, and Sunday night came and went quietly. #FreelanceLife #SmallBusiness

You're not lazy. You're holding the whole plan in your head, next to the invoices, the emails and the actual work you get paid for. #FreelanceLife #SmallBusiness

The good idea is somewhere. Notes app? A screenshot? The back of a receipt on the desk? You spend your evening hunting for it instead of using it. #FreelanceLife #SmallBusiness

A client says, "I saw your competitor's page, they're really active." You smile. Inside, something small and familiar drops. #SmallBusiness #FreelanceLife

The shower thought: "I haven't posted in six days." Nobody sees it, but it hums in the background of every working day. #FreelanceLife #SmallBusiness

It's 9:40 on a Sunday night. Tea gone lukewarm, blank caption box staring back. You type "Happy Monday, everyone!" not because it's good, but because it's something. #FreelanceLife #SmallBusiness

Standing in the supermarket queue, it hit me: why am I the filing system? Not "I need to get organised" for the hundredth time. Just that. Why is it all in my head? #soloentrepreneur #freelancelife

That tiny pause before the client says "no problem at all." Nobody says it out loud, but you feel the drop from professional to winging it. It just sits there for the rest of the call. #freelancelife

Picture it: 4:30 p.m., daylight on the desk, launch tomorrow, and I'm not nervous. Close the laptop at 5:30, cook dinner, actually taste it. The next morning is just a Tuesday. #FreelanceLife #WorkLifeBalance

The strangest part of launching tired: nothing went wrong, and I still didn't feel relieved. Because I didn't actually know. #FreelanceLife #DevLife

The demo went great. The client said 'looks great.' And still, at 2 a.m., I sat up thinking about that one admin endpoint I never retested. #FreelanceLife #BuildInPublic

It's 11:12 p.m. and the kitchen table is an office again. Cold tea, a notebook of crossed-out lines, and a client expecting the API live at nine. One curl command later, my stomach drops. #FreelanceLife #API

Haven't posted my comics for a while.
I've been enjoying the summer.

Hammock era is over, though.
Open again for freelance projects.

React, TypeScript, Node.js, or helping a team get the most out of AI.

A two-panel cartoon. Left panel, captioned "What people think I look like without a project for 3 months": a stressed, sweating man slumped over a laptop at a desk, one hand on his head, with a coffee mug and phone nearby. Right panel, captioned "Me": the same man asleep in a hammock between two palm trees on a beach, snoring, while his phone buzzes in the sand ("Bzzz! Bzzz!") and his laptop lies abandoned beside it. Signed SBS '26.

One more call to do today, and then I'm done for the day. Taking tomorrow off as well.

Ever spent three hours tweaking a proposal, designing a quick banner, or chasing client invoicesβ€”only to realize you haven't done any actual billable work all day?
Curious which platforms are actually worth your time and budget?
