So I developed a chronic illness years ago. It makes working outside the house pretty much impossible for me. I ran my own business for a good while, but it’s struggling. I have all kinds of random skills and abilities, but I don’t really see how they fit together in the context of employed work, so for all intents and purposes, I would have to consider myself as someone with little experience regardless of what I might do.

In the meantime, I’ve been studying web development, and that’s probably what I’m going to try to do, but I was just wondering what other realistic possibilities are there out there for someone in my situation? I just want to see if there’s anything I’m not considering.

    Data management, freelance journalism, GIS jobs. Many different organizations have positions that can be done remotely. Just looking at usajobs.gov search key word 'remote", 1400 jobs are currently open. If you don’t have enough experience, there are also online universities and free courses you can take to get that experience. Good luck.
