review 1: After a lot of research, I bought this book hoping it would help me build my own proofreading business. The book focuses on just a freelancer's life so it could be any kind of a job. Of course, I knew that when I bought the book. Horowitz gives packs the book full of information -- some of it which I will use and some that I probably will never use. I think it will be a good reference book as I continue to build my business.
review 2: I am a university student, and my specified field of study has absolutely nothing to do with freelance, but I have always had an interest in the area. I received this book through one of the Goodreads giveaways. This book provided me with an abundant amount of information that was easy for me to understand, and even utilize with... morein my own area of focus. I am definitely a "newbie" in the world of freelance, but after reading this book I feel like I could just go out and succeed today. While many of the topics presented might seem like "no-brainers," the author really took the time to include key tips and tricks to help any aspiring freelancers to succeed. It was easy to read and follow along, and I liked how the language used was precise yet descriptive. I would recommend this book to anyone who has a remote interest in freelance, and for those who are already much more advanced, this book provides little tidbits of information I never would have even considered had it not been brought to my attention through this book. The only reason I did not give this book five stars is because of my own personal prejudice, which is that this expertise does not entirely relate to the field in which I will become a professional. Overall, the author hit the nail on the head with the title; it really does seem like a Bible for freelancing, and refrains from using too much "jargon" or "slang" words, which I really appreciated. less
