Freelance Writers have Jury Duty too
Just because you are a freelance writer does not mean that you can escape jury duty. I have found this out first hand as I am set to fulfill my duty all day today. Even though I would rather be working at my computer, there are a few work related tasks that I can take care of while waiting around as the jury selection process unwinds.
1. I have several books on freelance writing and business to take with me. These will surely keep me busy for hours on end.
2. With so many new projects in the pipeline, I am going to attempt to get them organized today the good old fashioned way, with paper and pencil. This will help me to get everything in order as the year comes to a close.
Hopefully the above two tasks will keep me busy throughout the day. It is better to attempt to be productive than to simply sit around while the day wastes away!

I have always wanted to get put on jury duty. Lucky you.
