There is a great roundup of Freelance Camp Miami, including slides and videos of sessions on “Holy Crap My Hair is On Fire”. Sessions Edwin went to included :

* Working in Your Pajamas? How to Make Living as a Freelance Writer
* Sexing Up Your Small Business Image
* Do what you love (or your work life will totally suck)
* Best Practices for Using Social Media for PR.

This event was run in collaboration with the laid off camp series.

The folks at Reno Collective, an up and coming coworking space in Nevada, just announced their intention to put on a Freelance Camp. No date or details just yet. They are looking for volunteers and sponsors, so if you are in the neighborhood, drop them at line or just wander in.

On Saturday, June 6, 2009 a host of job-seekers, freelancers, entrepreneurs and startups will attend South Florida’s first community-driven conference for creative employment: FreelanceCamp / LaidOffCamp Miami.

We live in challenging times with the unemployment rate at its highest in over 20 years. You should attend LaidOffCamp / FreelanceCamp Miami if you are:

* Looking for creative ways to supplement your income or change your career
* Running your own business a freelancer, solo entrepreneur or startup company
* Wanting to connect with creative, friendly and helpful people
* Seeking employment or recently laid off

Stay tuned for more info as the planning unfolds. If you want to help out, fill out the contact form and tell rick what you have in mind.

We hope that you have not been recently laid off. But if you have, now might be the best time to start a business or change your career.
