Yes, this really is yet another blog by a disillusioned grad student. I sympathize, but that's just the way it has to be. For hints as to what my bizarre alias means, click here and here and, if needed, here and here. To get a sense of what I'm up to, feel free to check out the sections called "Toward a Wiseass Creed" and "Showings: Some Introductory Wiseassery" in my main blog's left-hand sidebar.

Seeking advice on freelance work

So, I'm working on sending out some job applications this afternoon. I really should be doing other stuff, but the anxiety of not having started a job search in earnest is too damn distracting. Does anybody out there have info on standard hourly fees for the following kinds of freelance work?
  1. editing and proofreading
  2. book club moderating
  3. tutoring
  4. test prep teaching
  5. exam proctoring

And does anybody know of other categories of work I ought to be thinking about, but which don't appear on this list?
