Work from Home II

Writers, editors and copywriters are another work from home job that can be done easily. Let's face it, today there are a lot more 'writers' around then ever before. Some are not, by any means, real writers that know the craft have the passion and work hard for their career but are paid nonetheless to deliver mediocre essays and short articles on a variety of topics. This can also include technical writing in which employers will usually provide sample of past work and ask the new writer to study it and reproduce similar pieces. So, these jobs usually take no experience whatsoever but room for advancement is possible with years of hard work.

Illustrators do, on the other hand, need to have past experience or at least a portfolio of what they can do and a letter to cite what types of work they are interested in doing. For example; cartoon drawing should be limited to newspapers and magazines, full sketches can be utilized wonderfully in books and other artistic expressions may be used in the greeting card industry.
