Freelance Writer

I have experience of more than two years and i want to work as a freelance writer. Please suggest me something i will be grateful….i am in need…..plz

You could do affiliate work or write an ebook about something you know then sell it.
There’s some people who make you a professional page for it for just $10 but I don’t DARE posting a link to them as some so called Top Contributors are deleting anything with links (and not!), so I suggest you get off the site and use google.
when you get going you can write more ebooks and keep on selling them, it’s a good
method and eventually you will have a portfolio of ebooks.
Make sure there are links in them with a linkback to your selling page so people might buy more.
Never overprice them, a couple of $ is a good price to get started..

Do I need a specialized degree? I’ve been a successful freelance writer for several years, with an educational background in psychology. I love the medical and healthcare fields and am passionate about learning. I’ve tried to find information on how to get started in the field of medical writing, but can’t seem to find any clear answers. Thanks for your help!

Get a resume or CV prepared – including a cover letter. You don’t need a specialized degree. Just go to the online job sites and start building up a portfolio which will help you use land the bigger gigs. If you already have an impressive portfolio you might not even need any medical writing experience if your CV is good enough.

Here’s a list of the biggest online job sites:

where can i submit my article and get paid for that(prefferably online women magazine)?

Get a copy of the current edition of The Writer’s Market. It’s available at your local library or book store. It will tell you who to contact for what kind of story, how much they pay, and everything you need to know.

I love to write, but I can’t keep up writing and work, because in order to write well, I need considerable time.
Does one need a degree in journalism or something similar in order to become a writer, or can I begin this straight away?
People seem to be under the impression that I don’t want to go to college. I’m just taking a year off between college and high school since I just moved to the UK.
Actually, in the UK, that would be university, not college.

Yes, you can

Updating the old resume and I took on a part time, freelance writing position for a local bilingual newspaper. How can I describe this on my resume?

Basically I listed it on the resume as a "journalist" but can’t think of how to flesh out a description of my job (all I do is write articles, email them to the editor, and receive a check)

Note – I will be using this probably for a job at an advertising agency. Thanks

Journalist is good ~ but more description is better. What do you write about???

* Biligual Journalist
* Freelance Writer
* Creative Non-Fiction Writer

It is difficult to really give good and helpful suggestions without know what you write about.

Make sure to include samples of your writing.

My website is hosted in the US, and it basically tells about my freelance writing services. My clients come from various countries across the world. However, I do not live in the US. What are the tax implications? I am aware that I need to consult with my local tax bodies at home, but what taxes are due to the US if any?

If you are not a U.S. citizen or resident and work from a foreign country and do not get payment in bank account in the U.S., then your income is not taxable in the U.S.
Only hosting service does not make your income taxable in the U.S. However, if you your own servers in the U.S., then it may be taxable.

Is freelance writing a solid career? Are there people who solely depend on freelance writing as a source of income?

Well it all depends on how well your books sell. I suggest becoming a writing teacher who writes books on the side.

That’s what I plan to do.

I’m a writer and I want to make money with my skills.

There is (or used to be) an annual publication called Christian Writers’ Market Guide. I suggest that you google it.

I plan to write articles for publication either on web or in print. Once I have written the article, what is next? Do I need to copywrite? How? What are the steps from start to finish?

You need to get a job at a newspaper in some small town. After a decade or two of working there you might acquire fame and a good reputation which would allow you to work as a freelancer. There is no other way. No one will publish you now.
