Re: client not paying - need advice!

DeAnna-
Sounds like you've already learned a few valuable lessons, although one not mentioned was the importance of getting a deposit. So... let's look at how to move FORWARD.

Stop calling her, or for that matter having any contact at all for the next several months. She's already avoiding you so return the favor. When she realizes that she needs something from you (which realistically may never happen), you'll be in a stronger position to demand full and immediate payment.

This does not seem like it rises to the level of even small claims court. That kind of activity is almost always more trouble and consumes more of your time than it's ever worth. Which leads me to:

Get on with it. Dwelling on this just takes time away from the better, and presumably better controlled, projects you have ahead of you. Go out and start looking for new business. Work on your reel. Network. Move on and don't waste any more time on this one.
