Number 1 reason why freelancers hate spring

« It so happens that 2002 was also my first year subsisting entirely as a freelance writer and editor, which apparently isn�t a lifestyle the IRS encourages, or even really comprehends. Not that I blame them. Sometimes I don�t get it myself. For instance, my income came from about 10 different sources last year, and the largest chunk wasn�t from any newspaper or magazine. » (from The Boston Phoenix, linked via Bookslut)

I feel your pain, girl. It is at this time of the year, tax time that is, that I really miss my uncomplicated full time job.
