Freelance Weekly Jobs – September 27, 2011
Freelance Writer
DESCRIPTION:
We are looking for articles on marketing a book, publishing, and the craft of writing for our Advice for Authors and Writers page (http://www.oncewritten.com/AdviceForAuthorsAndWriters.php).
REQUIREMENTS:
We prefer that these articles offer specific action items, and would rather that they didn’t take on the format of a “personal” essay. For obvious reasons, these articles must be written by industry professionals, and we cannot take articles about marketing a book from unpbublished authors, for example. We do accept interviews as articles, where unpublished freelance writers may interview industry professionals.
We pay $5 per article.

Freelancing is my life. It's what I know, it's what I'm good at, and I can't imagine doing anything else. You can call me "Freddie the Freelancer"… because I'd prefer not to use my real name for reasons that I'll tell you about in a moment.
