You might want to check out "The business side of creativity" and the GAG handbook. (obviously)
For me, my first year of freelancing was just barely paying the bills. Lots of emailing samples and meeting anyone and everyone.
I did a 3 month probono project with a great design company and now the work from that has led to great things.
In the past few months I've made more than all of last year.
Another good book is Karlson WIliker's "Tell me Why:the first (12?24?) months of a design company"They used to work with sagmeister and a journalist goes over their highs and lows. It was very reassuring to me. You can have faults and still do really well. :)
