As I was diligently crafting my post about being a travel-writer, I came across former-Gadling blogger Leif Pettersen’s video on a day in the life of a freelance writer. Leif, who writes for Lonely Planet among other publications, outlines some of the problems of working at home — namely, the temptation to do anything except write. What cracked me up the most is that when I came across his video (on his blog Killing Batteries), I was drinking coffee and perusing my news reader and blogroll — all while working on my travel-writing post, of course.
The video is a bit long — almost 14 minutes — but worth the watch.
