While there, she brought their PixelMill and John Galt's Templates brands to the top of the web site template market, handled customer support, and wrote volumes of tutorials. Corrie left full-time employment in 2004 and now enjoys working at home. She and her husband live in Davis.

Why Corrie Loves Being Self-Employed

• Work while lounging on the couch.
• Free hot drinks, anytime.
• Take a break: go running, take a nap, have lunch with the hubby, or hang out with a friend. Then work really hard the rest of the time.
• Focus on projects that you really care about.
• In the summer - work outside in the garden; get a tan while you work.
• In the winter - work by a crackling fire!
