How can I find work as a writer?

I am an experienced writer. How can I find an individual or company to work full time or part time ?

  • Answer:

    Experienced, perhaps. But I am sorry to say that your writing skill is lacking by quite a bit. The material on blogger is trite at best and has far too many fragmented sentences. It seems you are trying too hard and not succeeding. To obtain work as a writer you really need to have the skill and experience professionally to make it. I am a business plan writer and I will tell you flat out that writing full-time (mind you not all the work I do constitutes as "writing") is not as fun or exciting as it may seem. It's hard work and requires you to really know and understand your material. If you are lacking in too many areas, you will not survive. Writing is a tough, competitive field to be in and if you don't have the skill, I would strongly advise against it. Veterans will chew you alive (not all but many will) and talented but inexperienced newbies will quickly pass you by. I suggest you hone your abilities first and then consider it. Right now I do not think you have what it takes to be a writer.

Hi, I'm not having any luck with your links -- the two Helium links take me to the login page where I'd have to log in (I don't have an account there), and the Yahoo groups link takes me to the Yahoo!Group search page. So I've seen no writing samples, other than your question and your description above. There are a couple of typos in your post, too. I'd recommend that you triple-check your work with spelling and grammar checks, and possibly post your skills and availability on sites such as guru.com and elance.com. Good luck to you, I hope this helps.
