Well, things are finally moving forward for my new business. Took two banks and about forty-five days, but I am finally funded and my equipment has been ordered. I’ve joined the trade organizations for the industry, and am finalizing my business cards and other marketing materials, with the addition of those associations’ logos. Some of my equipment will be here as early as Friday, and the rest probably by Tuesday at the latest.
I spent all night last night putting together a new desk that is more conducive to functioning as an editing suite than my previous desk, and my “office” is in shambles while I’m emptying and moving furniture in and out.
For the curious, I have a posted a semi-complete equipment list.
