I am about to start a new career as a writer. My ultimate goal is to have a published, fiction book. But for now I am just wanting to write to make money, both online and for magazines. Does anyone have any tips for me? I say thanks in advance for those who do.

First buy a Writers Market. It has all of the people who accept freelance work, tells you what they pay and what they expect. Also, you can do some searching on the net and find companies that post jobs on various sites. I am a writer and that is what I do.If you want any further info about these companies just send me a message and I'll try to help you.

All the best for your writing career. I suggest that to sharpen your hand at writing you first indulge in blogging and check how good you find yourself with words. That can help you a lot as you can always improve your blogs and earn too.
