Looking for very short-term contract work (1-3 weeks)

[solarbird]

I'm looking for short-term contract work to try to fill in some of the gaps in our financial situation caused by all the medical hell over the last four years. I'm interested in 1-3 week (not month) contracts, because that's what I imagine my arms can tolerate.

So if you know somebody looking specifically for very-short-term work, let me know! I have worked professionally as a software developer (C and C++ mostly), software tester, systems manager (mostly but not exclusively mail-related), and technical writer. I've also done some professional graphic design work, so that's not entirely out of the question either - but it's not really what I'm trying to get. This'd have to be Seattle-area only - preferably Seattle proper - unless the're willing to have me work by remote, which I'm happy to do, or are willing to pay me extra for very-short-term travel.

Resume and/or C.V. available upon request.

anent funky arms....

... the MG wipes my shoulders and upper arms out from trying to support the weight of my forearms and hands, long before my hands themselves play out -- altho' they do, they do :/

I cannot in my present drugged-up state recall whether I might ever have mentioned this before, but folding supports for the forearms, that clamp onto the edge of my writing-desk, are an absolute godsend. I got mine from Assistive Devices in Berkeley, California, at Carole's recommendation -- they were about three hundred for the pair, which I appreciate is major dosh for now, but after your first contract's cleared might be a heck of a good thing to chase down and acquire.

I rather doubt I would be able to do much writing and cartography, at all, without them. Recommended without hesitation.
