Oh, wise internets!

Anyone have any recommendations when it comes to freelance writing/editorial websites? I'm not looking to go into freelance hot and heavy but I could stand to pick up a small job or two a month (Ed's schedule and hours were changed at work to accommodate his classes and it's going to hurt us a bit).

Any advice?

Oh! I've never seen that! Thank you.

There are always a lot of postings on ratracerebellion.com for such types of things, including writing and editing and proofreading. Additionally you might check out about.com's listings... They often have 'specialist' positions where you become the expert on a topic and manage an area of their site. I think the starting wage is $700 a month (at least, it was when my sister tried to be a 'guide'.)

Hope this helps, and I'll send you anything else I come across. :)

Thank you! I don't know why I didn't think of that....

Primarily hoaxes and out-of-town jobs, unfortunately. While I've scored interviews in other cities via Craigslist, Orlando seems to be a less-than-verdant market.

Interesting! I will check it out - strange doesn't scare me. *grin* Thanks!
