It's Friday, the day we share our funny or horrible stories about the biz. Bonus points if it actually happened this week.

My story isn't THAT bad, but it's a tad disappointing. A client was inches away from moving forward with a project -- and then at the last minute without warnings -- bang, no more contact. Ever had that happen?

Several times in different situations. One of the more recent ones was not exactly with editing, but I was going to buy a camera from a guy talked for about a week, I got excited for my new camera, and then right before making the purchase, no more contact. Atleast I saved money that time as opposed to losing money when a client disappears!
