If you can write well and are looking for a WAH gig, you know you can write articles and reviews? Theres companies out there that are paying $10-$20+ for a good article about a topic.

I've written several, and have gotten really good at it...

Let me know if you want some further information about it

Jennifer,

I would love some more information about writing from home. I do have experience writing, and have a journalism degree.

Thanks, Lori

I would also love to receive that info, too. I don't have a college degree, but can write well. Does this make a difference?

Did all of you get answers about this? If not, let me know and I can help. I've been making around $1000 a month over the first few months of writing.

The O.P. looks like a spammer to me and hasn't returned since they first started this thread. On the other hand writermommy4 is a long time member and pretty legit, I'd love to hear what you're doing.

Thanks melsb. The best places to start writing are textbroker.com which pays per word or associatedcontent.com which can pay per article or residual income. Once you have some articles under your belt you can apply to demandstudios.com, they pay $15 per article. You can also check out craigslist for writing jobs, or freelancewritinggigs.com has a list of writing jobs from around the world on almost a daily basis. If you're just starting out then I recommend charging $5-$10 per 500 word article. This willl help you get clients. Once they like your work you can consider upping your price. The average for a really good writer can be $15-$30 per article/report or even an ebook. You can bid on jobs at elance.com. You don't have to have a college degree. If you write well then you can make some decent money. If anyone has more questions or wants help just let me know. I know that until I really figured some things out I didn't know how to make money. I write nonfiction and fiction. The majority of my money comes from nonfiction (for now). I've created my own publishing company to get my fiction works out to the public.
