Re: good vs. bad clients -- I commented on part 1, basically saying that being friendly helps me find work, but it also means my clients are friendly/casual which can lead to time wastage. It's like the opposite of the super-type-a micromanager client.

When I feel a client is wasting my time, I try to gently remind them that, for a freelancer, time is money. Also, as Ryan suggested, having two clients/projects going on at once is the best scenario.
