Hi everyone. I was looking for advice on finding MPTE work. Contrary to most people's tastes, I've recently participated in a few MPTE projects and find I quite like it. I realize it might be because it's easier to carry out this task while in quarantine with the kids stuck at home (more difficult to concentrate), but regardless, I find I enjoy this kind of work and would like to find more projects of this nature.

Any advice where I might find MPTE work?

Thanks!

Working more ≠ Earning more Jun 22, 2020

Matías, if you understand that "PEMT is no translation" and "Working more and harder has very-very little to do with earning more", and PEMT is the best what you could offer for the money, then check almost* any 'edit / proofread' jobs here and on other sites.

If it's not a big top secret, does it make a $0.02/word flat?
