With more than 1,800 answers under his belt, you're free to say that he has covered almost any freelance topic and question a freelancer can possibly think of. Yes, that's one talking (better to say writing) and walking freelance encyclopedia alright.

Why Freelancers Like To Read Michael's Answers on Quora?

Michael Brooks isn't the only great writer in freelance topics on Quora. That's a fact. However, it's also a fact that you don't have too many freelancers who turned out to be the CEOs of freelance platforms later in their life.

He's also brutally honest and uncompromising in his answers. When it's required to compare a platform he launched goLance with the competition, he does it fair and square. He doesn't hesitate a bit to bring out all the pros and cons, so the readers can draw their own unbiased conclusions.
