Have you thought about translating other peoples novels into your native language. As I understand, in that business there is a more or less fixed payment for that job.
There is a job that is in line with what I want to do: being a children's book writer. Unfortunately, competition is fierce and payment is not fixed, but it is a job nontheless.

Translating... ugh! Nothing sounds more depressing than having to completely rewrite someone ELSE's story, reminding myself at every keystroke that they have succeeded where I have yet to.
