Default Types of freelance jobs?
What are some of the different types of freelance work is everyone doing? Is it mostly technical? I prefer writing jobs, myself.

I've been doing some literature and content proofing lately. A few little logo designs, business cards, flyers, etc.; but I generally like proofing. It's a tough job to get - everyone thinks they can spell. Heh.

I've been writing a lot of tourism articles for a magazine that will launch soon along with ghostwriting for a couple of political blogs. Those are fun right now lol.

I do mostly writing. It's something that comes fairly easy, and since I work with forums a lot, I am used to doing a lot of typing.

I'm trying to get into freelancing, but haven't been having a lot of luck at it. :( I DO have one prospect, but it's for proofreading. That's supposed to kick off soon, and I can't wait. It'll be my first "paid" online job. :D

It is so much easier to do freelance work if you enjoy doing it. Find something that you are good at. Good luck with the proofreading job! That should be somewhat easy. :P

Halotree I am looking for someone to make my logo I don't know how much you charge but I really need it done. I'm looking for the right person. I think I might have found one but the option is still open.

Hey marab - how's it going with your proofreading prospect? Have you been able to start yet? Are you facing any challenges with your client that folks here might be able to advise you on, with regard to lighting their fire or anything? Just askin'.
