Well I signed up for this site that has tons of legitimate virtual jobs....most for IT folks, web designers, bloggers etc. Sooooo you computer geeks its probably a good place to go. Although there is a subscription. Anyway, I thought I would share some periodically. Here is one I think anyone of us can do. Of course with any job, can't promise you employment!

Cartoonist:

Offsite Cartoonist

We are looking for a cartoonist who can draw roughly 15-20 black and white cartoons for a book about decision making for college students.

While we are open to how the cartoons will look and some creativity in coming up with new ones will be needed, we would like them to all feature the same characters (possibly one or two primary characters, with others who would appear in some cartoons but not others), and we also have concepts for many of the cartoons we would like.

We are offering a flat-rate of $50 per cartoon, and all rights for the cartoons would transfer to us.

You would be mentioned in the beginning of the book as having drawn the cartoons, but you would not be provided a space on the cover.

We are looking for one cartoonist who can do all of the cartoons in the book to ensure continuity, so please don't contact us if you are only willing to complete fewer than the 15-20 we would need.

This project will end with completion of the needed cartoons, but there is a chance that we would re-hire you for one of the dozen other projects we are involved in and will become involved in.

We are looking to have all cartoons completed by a rough completion date of the end of September, so it's pretty expedited, but if the right person is found, we could be flexible by a little.

Cartoonist should have the ability to scan cartoons and email them, as well as to send the final versions in original format to our office in Addison.

This is a great opportunity for a student to increase your publication and skills.




If you are interested, please email Chris McGrath at cmcgrath@decidebetter.com with one or more sample cartoons.
