Do any Lotters here freelance write? For companies like Upwork, Freelancer, People for hire. I'm just wondering. Because yeah, I would love to do that, but I can't seem to get the nerve to send a quote. What finely gave you the courage to say, "ok, I know enough to earn some money"? I've got Grammarly going in the background and I've noticed they don't have to fix as much as they used to. You know, I'm not getting emails telling me to just burn my keyboard and get a recorder. Patience is said to be a virtue, but then, I didn't go to school to be a doctor.

I tried all these sites but it appears we take ages there to get our first writing assignments

This is something I would be interested in but don't know enough about it to try. I don't doubt my English skills but I'm not sure what I would be required to write about.

They are basically available to whoever signs up. some of them want to charge you as well so be cautious. You go through the jobs offered then you send in a bid of how much you would charge them to write their work. So you would be comfortable with freelance writing for companies? Good for you. I'm not confident enough yet.

@madgreer77 I might be confident enough to just give it a try but sometimes you have to give it a go to find out whether it is going to suit you.
