My plan of attack:

1. Get my ebooks published -- I have several work-in-progress ebooks on writing ebooks with free tools on net, how to get really cheap web hosting, and get started on cloud (EC2) for hostings.

2. Start freelancing on odesk, guru, freelancers etc

3. Publish my iphone games and android apps

4. Put my Saas bug trackers online for subscrption.

What do you think?

U can do all that and u screwed a mobile project?

Sit with your boss and be honest about that project,he can help and defend you about the delay,...say him to ask the customer to change some params of the project:time and justify.lack of communication will worsen things

One guy doesn't screw up a whole project. Estimates should be reviewed, progress tracked, requirements managed and scheduled. Who should do that? In part, your boss.

If your boss is upset, it because they failed to keep on top of this. If you're fired, its because they need a scapegoat.

You're right, I wasn't giving bad news to my boss early enough.

But I don't want to go through another round of this kind of crazy crunch. Maybe this is a kick in the back to launch myself. Or I might just be burn out and talk crazy. :-(
