I phoned up last thursday's one last night and they said they haven't decided yet, so I'm praying I get that one, as it seems ace.
I got a meeting at 3 today with a new company which I think it'll result in a re-design / re-build of their current site. It's a really budget-concious charity, so I won't make much money on it; but it'll help keep the wolf from the door and bulk up the CV
I've had 3 emails saying "We're taking your CV to the client" from verious agencys.
I've realised that in terms of work that I'm extreamlly proud off and show a large range of skills, there is only two sites. They show more or less everything I need to show, but it's not good that one of them is in development and one of them is a personal site. Portfolio is scarce 'cus I've spent the last year on just one site. So I should be able to knock out this lolsy facebook trolling site (that shows off that I can interact with FB), today's charity site, and my own personal profesional site.

I have a copywriter who's really established, but she isn't cheap in the slightest, sometimes she can take up to 30-40% of the site's entire budget. She was the lead copywriter for Signet; more specificily, the H.Samuel and Earnest Jones websites. She's my cousin, and she's amazing at what she does, but when a site is like £400-500 for 8 pages, and she's taking £25-35 a page, and that not including stock photography, it can be a bit much.
It's a very important aspect of the site; the wording; but on my scale I'm working on, it can push the job into being just about worth it for me.
She's created for me quite a bit of work in the past too though.
