On my second step out into freelancing I ditched all the "we" and "and associates" stuff that freelancers so often use and made it REALLY clear that Giant Peach was JUST me.

For years, if not decades, I hid behind the facade of a corporation as an in-house designer -- being anonymous.

It is a fine line for the one-woman studio to conduct business as a business but yet be personable to sustain client/vendor relationships. You are so right, Justin.
