​Do you need more like-minded people in your life, people who understand your drive and determination to forge your own path? Creating the Freelance Career has created a gathering place for freelancers, solopreneurs and entrepreneurs who want to be in a support community, to find collaborators and colleagues, to learn and grow our businesses together, through the platform of Facebook. 

In a closed Facebook group, we will inspire and motivate each other, find helpful tips, read stories of success and challenges, and interact with Jill L.Ferguson, author of Creating a Freelance Career, and with many of the entrepreneurs and freelancers whose stories serve as the case studies in the book. And most importantly, we will all learn from each other. 

So come join us, if you're just starting out or a seasoned self-employed professional. We'd love to learn about you and your business(es).  

Yesterday, Upjourney.com released its list of best business books to read for 2019 if you're an entrepreneur and Creating a Freelance Career ​made the list, along with some esteemed classics like Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill and works by John C. Maxwell. We are both humbled and excited to be included as recommended reading and grateful to the love shown by Upjourney.com and the social media community for our book. 

Also, this afternoon Jill L. Ferguson will be a guest for an hour on Kimberli Lewis' Leadership Beyond Borders radio show (Voice America Radio) discussing "The Emergence of the Freelance Workforce."
