Working Hard

Last week, things weren't too busy and I was getting a little bit bored. But wow, is this week different. It looks like I'll be busy designing brochures and an annual report. I should learn to embrace the slow times, because I know things will always pick up.

I've learned recently that I am very easily discouraged when it comes to work stuff. I often doubt my abilities and even my decision to be self-employed. So lately, my prayer has been that I won't be seeking to find my identity in work or being a graphic designer, but rather in being a child of God.

What are you busy working on this week?

Another Blog

I am admittedly a flaky blogger. Last year I started a blog featuring both personal and cool wedding detail posts. Then I started cataloging my inspiration at Hello Design Cheer. And now... I'm starting a new blog that brings all of those things together. Tales of a Young Designer will be the combination of personal details, behind-the-scenes posts of Oneleven Creative, and awesome inspiration.

After quitting my full time job in corporate communications in August, I have spent the last few months trying to establish my freelance graphic design business. It has been the most challenging time of my career, but also the most rewarding.

Thanks for joining me as I catalog what life is like as a solo designer.
