I’ve been working remotely, off and on, for a long time. When I started out as a freelancer a decade ago, I worked from my room in my flat. When I had a regular job, I worked from my girlfriend’s house in Napier every second fortnight. And for a while in 2016 I worked from my lounge when my then-employer’s office building was temporarily taken out of commission by the earthquake in November of that year. Now, of course, I work remotely writing content.
And my experience isn’t that unusual. Remote working is pretty much par for the course for lots of creative, freelance jobs – including lots of arts jobs. So today I’ve interviewed a foremost expert on this topic: me.
