On top of my 9 to 5 here in India, where I am part of the pulse, a minor artery or vein somewhere in the lower arm, pumping mostly posters and event invitations to the heart and subsequently soul of this self-aggrandizing independent publishing house, I've been attempting to freelance some work, although lately these ventures have waned.
The first effort resulted in being paid $60 to travel south and play an eighteenth century missionary. As already discussed, actual value: priceless. Since then I've been making in-roads with another local publisher, acting more as a condiment on something they're eating, ketchup seems to be the most popular choice around here, than an element of the circulatory system.
I've designed two books covers, participated in an interview (with photo) regarding a subject I know nothing about for a magazine I've never heard of, and had offers to re-edit translated books (re: rewrite esoteric translations...massive headache) and write children's stories. All for Indian-standard wage of course.
Did I say designed two book covers? One was actually only a cover concept...

i'm sorry too. luckily, i'm good at sharing other people's things.
Somebody obviously "ZACHED" that wine glass. Therefore, I deserve partial credit for the cover design.
