Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Yes, all spectacular ideas. I'm doing 5 of them already. Hmmmm, does anyone make good money with writing gigs? I'm only piecing together a couple hundred a month. coolworks.com has some fun jobs on it :D thank you, Mike

Hello Everyone, my name is johanna.  I spent summers traveling the U.S. in a motorhome with my parents who were both school teachers.  I drove from Boston to OR last May and back again, after my divorce.  I'm 40 years old and all of this time, I've been thinking, thinking, thinking - what do I want?  I want to be a permanent RVer.  I'm a writer, paranormal, and since that doesn't support my Airstream dreams yet, I'm wondering about making money on the road.  I love to work, at anything.  Any advice?  Thank you

biggrin

Welcome Johanna,

Check out our Earning A Living On The Road introduction page and then click through to our Workamping Overview pages.  That should give you a good start.  :)

I know of a couple writers who can ghost write a novel in under a month and they make really good money that way. The sad thing is some bestselling writers do not do their own writing and some can't even use their own name since the publisher owns it and uses ghost writers.

Sell stuff at flea markets/ Swap meets and fairs. You can make good money if you find products that sell well.

Welcome to the forums, Johanna.

While I'm not into much in the way of fantasy, several in my family are, so I guess I need to inform them of your books.

Glad to have you as part of the family, and good luck with finding a good source of income.

Terry

Johanna: Welcome to the best RV forum on the internet. This is the friendliest RV family you can ever imagine!! If you are pursuing the work camping gig you really need to look into Workamper News; there are so many varieties of employs and in the continental states. I was approached a few times about technical manuals writing. I also hear children's story books are still a hot item. Hope to have you as a part of our group!! PIEERE

bill joyce: this is fascinating about the ghost writers that you know - I'll look into it. much appreciated.
Bear: I used to sell my books and alpaca socks/hats etc. I'm VERY glad to know that it's a viable option :D thanks
Terry: Nice to meet you too; it's okay that you don't read fantasy. LOL :o)
Pieere: Then, I will make Workamper News my research focus today. I was going to research mermaids, but I can do that anytime. Tech manuals/children's books...something to think about. Thanks for the advice and warm welcome.
