NOTE: I know that there's no such thing as a "quick" return without an initial amount of work, but I'm dying here not seeing any growth in my current pursuits.
My skills are as follows:
- HTML/CSS/Bootstrap - Responsive web design basically, almost a year of experience with this.
- Some JavaScript - I know enough to create things and make changes on a website.
- Some Python - Have written a few small programs and am becoming confident with it.
- WordPress - Working on making custom themes rn.
- Illustration - Went to a performing arts high school as a visual arts concentrated student for 4 years. Portfolio here
- Graphic Design - Logos, banners, typography, website mockups, you name it.
- Writing - Used to write alot of fiction, have completed an autobiography -- 250 pages in one week.
I have a very artsy background and self-taught web development for 8 months before entering the year-long software development intensive I'm in. I actually made a website with a portfolio to market my web development services (www.katalexisdesigns.com) but no matter what I do, I cannot drum up clients (I have asked friends, posted on listing sites, exhausted my personal pool of resources... nothing). I need money right now and definitely want to use at least one of my skills in a way that can start me making money by next week. I'm just frustrated that I have these marketable skills but every time I attempt to monetize them, it never seems to work out. I'm wondering if I'm just not coming up with the right ideas or something of that nature, but I don't know.
