I've been doing some more thinking about transcribing from home. It turns out, Scribie isn't the only site available, so the potential to earn more is there. I just need to decide whether I want to invest in the equipment (a foot pedal to start and stop audio) to practice getting faster to increase my per-hour earning potential.
I feel a little stressed in trying to decide whether to pursue it. While I do have an interest in transcription, I'd also like to eventually open my own craft shop, first as a part-time gig, then eventually -- and hopefully -- to replace my full-time income. The snag is that every minute I spent practicing transcribing (and eventually working as a transcriber) could be time spent working on crafts.
However, if I try transcription, find some success at it, it could replace the other major freelance site I use that has dried up as a resource for me. I could create some "pay-it-down" money for me right now, as opposed to maybe one day in the future through making crafts.
