This book would have been more helpful if it had been updated since it was released in 2005. My guess is that much of the advice re: using email and the Internet is outdated by now. I just read Writer for Hire by Kelly James-Enger, which was more up-to-date and more practical.

A solid book about freelancing that gives tips ranging anywhere from breaking in for the first time, settling contracts, conducting interviews, finding sources, and dealing with the day-to-day tasks involved.
