Today was my last day at the MCV/Canvas office for the week. As of today I am only working two days per week, with the other three days of the week being devoted first and foremost to freelancing, my responsibilities as Chair of Melbourne Fringe, and producing and presenting my weekly radio program SmartArts on 3RRR.
This means I've cut my salary in half in the middle of a recession with no guaranteed source of income until I can start generating some regular income from writing for the arts section of The Age etc. Mad? Possibly - but fuck I'm looking forward to the challenge. Wish me luck!

Luck and horips...
(I don't know what horips are but it is the catchpa I am about to type in so I thought I'd share)
Horips indeed - thankee kindly!
The odd thing is, you always get through! The best of luck, Richard.
You cracked The Age barrier, well done!
Thanks for the encouraging words, Alison - and Michael, thank you too, though I'm not going to get too excited until The Age publish an article of mine they accepted several weeks ago...
Good Luck Richard, although with your positive outlook and talents you're already miles ahead. Career/income wise, I did something similar a while back and I am still here and still smiling!
Hope to catch up soon
Cheers
Matt
LUCK!
