One of the many aspects that I don't think I hear enough about freelance illustrators is the effort that it takes and the social deprivation that goes hand in hand with pursuing the profession. Anyway, while searching for podcasts on iTunes I came across a couple great podcasts focused on being an illustrator - Big Illustration Party Time and Escape from Illustration Island. Both are very informative and both - specifically Escape from Illustration Island - focus on the psychological aspect of being a freelance illustrator.
Lately I've kind of hit a block and listening to both these podcasts have really helped me get my focus back and remind me why I pursued this line of work in the first place...so go check 'em out whether you're an illustrator or want to understand what goes on in the mind of one.
