<div style="margin: 5px 5% 10px 5%;"><img src="https://www.sickgaming.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/video-facing-down-failure-as-a-freelancing-game-dev.jpg" width="200" height="200" title="" alt="" /></div><div><p dir="ltr" id="docs-internal-guid-9349af28-7fff-e9ef-5895-9e7b511bc56b"><span>Freelancing comes with many failures and </span>intimidations<span> but some friendly advice can help game developers learn to roll with those punches and make the most of their project-to-project aspirations. </span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span>In this GDC Summer AMA, writer, narrative designer, and freelance extraordinaire Zaire Lanier fields questions from freelance-curious attendees and offers advice on how devs can go from being a lonely and unsuccessful freelancer to something more.</span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span>Learning to navigate the sometimes frequent failures that come with freelancing takes time and many people don’t realize the amount of effort it takes to get even a toe in the door, making chats like the one embedded above with Zaire all the more valuable to the game dev community.</span></p>
