I've been on elance since November 2010 and I've just been allocated my third job - woo-hoo - so, yes, it is possible to work and find work on elance. You have to choose carefully what you bid on, and how you bid. Go only for the jobs you really want to do and can do well, because your enthusiasm will translate to the client. If you submit a proposal, include a related writing sample. For all my jobs so far, I have specifically taken the trouble to create something, even if it's only a paragraph or so, to demonstrate that I will be able to handle the material he or she wants.
Otherwise, good luck and keep trying!!!
