<![CDATA[The View From Your Recession: Checking Back In]]>This reader was an information architect who had been out of work for four months. Original post here. The reader writes:

Cautiously, I'd say I'm doing okay now. Today I'm working steadily as a freelancer, with four long-term clients and a bunch of others in the works. The money coming in is enough that I'm comfortably on top of my expenses, and I'm slowly climbing out of my own personal Pit of Debt (credit cards and parents), but at least I can see daylight.

It's been no picnic getting here, though. I first wrote you in April, and I'm glad that person had no idea August was coming, because August was AWFUL.
