self employed -freelance work - how to start, taxes etc

[Grumpy's Gal]

can anyone direct me online to a place where I can get some info? I think I might do some free lance work and I need to know if there's any paper work to fill out or what do I do about withholding etc. Thanks for any info you can provide!

The Small Bus. Admin might be a good first stop: http://www.sbaonline.sba.gov/

And as far as taxes go: http://www.irs.gov/businesses/small/

Thank you! I just want to make sure I do everything necessary to be correct and legal.
