The Illustrated Freelancer’s Guide

READ IT FOR FREE via Creative Scotland
Written by Heather Parry, illustrated by Maria Stoian.

The Illustrated Freelancer’s Guide is a practical resource for the increasing number of artists, makers, writers and other creatives working freelance in Scotland today.

It was created to fill an information gap for creative freelancers to understand their rights and best practices in avoiding and addressing difficult situations.

“The nature of freelancing – often remote, often isolated, with no HR department or workplace union to help you - can make you feel that when things go wrong, it’s simply tough luck. It’s difficult to advocate for yourself and discouraging to sift through pages of government information to try and find out what your rights really are. Even for those of us who’ve been freelancing for a long time, the barriers can feel huge.”
