Hi everyone,
Does anyone have some good ideas about any home-working jobs? I love crafts and currently writing childrens books(hope to be published one day) as well as doing a proof reading course. Im hoping that a door may open to earning some money from home as I am unable to go out to work at the moment and have been for sometime. I love the internet and I just can't think of a good route to take. Any ideas would be gratefully recieved.
Thanks:think:

Hi
I saw an advert for homeworking as need an extra income, I spoke to the guy and it sounds legit, but not too sure??

I just wondered if anyone had any experience of this or any similar things

Couldn't get that link to open unfortuantely. I'm very wary of a lot of these things as they seem to be trying to rip you off, even if they look decent enough. It would be great if someone knew of somewhere that is legit and honest though! Or somewhere that told you which were legit and which were dodgy.
Great query, Lavendar Girl - I'm looking forward to the replies too!0 -

Obvious choices are virtual sectary type roles (assuming your typing is up to speed - literally)

Whilst I am not sure that childrens books are really suitable for it you could always self publish your books/ short stories as ebooksAll posts made are simply my own opinions and are neither professional advice nor the opinions of my employers

If you are a 'crafty' person how about selling some bits on Ebay? Okay, its not a job as such and you probably wont make a fortune, but I know that 'shabby chic' items sell well and people always buy nice, homemade soft furnishings (cushion covers etc).lavender_girl wrote:Hi everyone,

See if your local library has a copy of A BIT ON THE SIDE by Jasmine Birtles. There are several good ideas for part-time and homeworking (no scams). If you have an eye for detail, how about indexing? I'd never even heard of it but there is a job for people who write indexes at the back of non-fiction books. Cool or what?If you think reality makes sense, you're just not paying attention!0

Tedious would be my comment rather than cool... how many books on 18th century glass production or methods of increasing the tensile strength of steel I bars could you really read before you wanted to throw yourself infront of a trainAll posts made are simply my own opinions and are neither professional advice nor the opinions of my employers
