I'm at a career crossroads. I have an A.S. in accounting, but my heart lives within the pages of books. I need to find a way to combine the fields so that I can potentially earn a fairly decent wage. I don't have the money and my husband doesn't have the patience to wait for me to publish. Writing will have to be something I do in my spare time. I do have the oppurtunity to go back to school, but I don't want to waste time and money if it doesn't lead to a career I can really sink my teeth into. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Compared to offline businesses, the investment required to start an online business is minimal. A popular way of earning money on the internet is by providing information and services. This can be monetised by advertising or charging a subscription. You can also make money online by selling products on auction websites like eBay or through your own website.

Get your foot in the door at a publishing house. You could work in their marketing or accounting department.
