Make Money Editing From Home
Michael LaRocca was a purchasing manager and technical editor for an Engineering/R&D; firm for eight years before moving to China in 1999 and creating MichaelEdits.com. Prior to that he was a computer programmer, military electronics specialist, hog farmer and repo man. Michael spent six years teaching English in China, five years as a medical lecturer in Thailand, and one year in Vietnam continuing to grow his business. In those 12 years, he traveled everywhere by bicycle, so returning to North Carolina included remembering how to drive. Michael returned to North Carolina in 2011 with his lovely Australian wife, who he married in October 2000, and the Calico cat they adopted from the Hong Kong SPCA in September 2000. He likes to tell people, “I bring home the best souvenirs.” Michael has also written 12 published books, mostly novels. His non-fiction works include Teach Yourself Creative Writing and Who Moved My Rice? He can be reached at MichaelEdits.com or MichaelWrites.com.
