uh...
i guess you'll have to wait for awhile before you make the transition then eh?...basically don't do it untill you have some jobs coming in..an assured string of work or clients...
otherwise it's suicide...if you've worked in the industry for a while, and created a good name for yourself, and have accumulated a number of clients that really dig your work and respect you..
then just one by one, approach them on a social basis..
take em out for a drink..
tell them what your plans are...
only do this if you're positive they won't mention it to your boss...after you've done all that, and think you may have some freelance jobs from them, go ahead and send out to all of them a little package with your new business card and letterhead type thing..so they can see you're legit...
and then get to work..once again..
only do this if you are SURE you can make it work...
