Make sure you've got a contract set-up with your client if it's a big or long-term project - because if they need to fuck you over with pay, believe me they will!
Part from that just go for it. I went freelance end of summer last year and have been ok, keeping my head above water. I totally agree about marketing yourelf - it's so important. I didn't properly but have pulled my finger out and have had a good few bits of work - even a prospective big project off the back of my little website!
And defo read Sagmeister's book - he's very inspirational.
I'm looking to get a little studio space at the mo in east london round shoreditch/hoxton way - lemme know if you'd be looking too. Would be good to share a space with someone else whose creative. Plus the space would probably be bigger a cheaper...
