I’m sad to say that after 11 years as a Book Designer and Book Typesetter, Elance has closed their doors and shifted us over to Upwork.com.
I’m not happy about this change for a couple of reasons:
1. Elance was a fine online hiring platform with access to good clients.
2. Elance took an 8.75% fee from our earnings, Upwork TAKES 20%!
3. There are many “clients” on the Upwork platform looking for free and almost-free work.
I prefer to now do my business directly with my clients through my site at www.JustYourType.biz and via email at sue@justyourtype.biz but — if you prefer to use an online hiring site, please hire me through my Upwork profile at Upwork.com
I look forward to working with you on many wonderful books in the coming years!
