Four (4) slots available. All four openings are for home-based work. The job requires full commitment and is for long-term regular work, so this may not be the right job for mood writers, those who are looking for a quick buck, those who spread their time too thinly, those who have no focus or concentration, or those who embrace distractions lovingly.
Depending on performance and output quality, part-time writers may be offered full-time positions, with a corresponding increase in remuneration plus additional perks and benefits.
