Are there any successful freelance writers out here? Or anyone interested in getting into freelance writing? I came across a blog with some resources for writers and would like to share.

Freelance writing is really fun, I am 23 and have been a freelance writer for 5 years now - it can be a really successful business if you know how to play your cards right. You can write for eHow (i'm AngelGirl1024 on eHow) or you could go to http://www.getafreelancer.com and get some clients. Getafreelancer is where I find most of my clients. Currently I have 12 clients under me with 2 writers under me. I make over a thousand dollers a month. Getafreelancer is a great site and I recommend you checking it out to see what it is all about. It can be a hard job, but it is also fun at the same time. Instead of having to drive to work, you just wake up, go to the desk and get to work. You can be your own boss, but you will have deadlines to meet at the same time. When I first started freelance writing, I was a natural, I could turn out 20 articles in an hour, if you write 20 articles @ $2.00 an hour, then that is $40.00. If you are a natural writer, then you will be able to do the same. Good luck in you journey as a writer. ~Melanie

Well my work has not only been published on the web but in a few magazines as well. To tell you the truth I would like to get published more in magazines however I am also looking for any writing opportunity where I can make some money I mean even if its $20.

I've done freelance writing but have been decent. I've explored options with Associated Content, Helium, and Triond. I would be interested in looking at other areas to expand to build up a writing portfolio with another site. I'm always open to expand in that regard to make some more money. I wouldn't mind hearing about it and seeing what else is available that will pay without fail.

Well, I have written a few freelance articles and I have successfully earned 2 cents for my efforts so I guess you could count me as one of the successful freelance writers out to make an honest buck on the internet. I have yet to earn some big bucks so this is definitely a good thing for me, another mountain to climb.
