Freelance Writing Jobs for July 22, 2009

So I spent the better part of yesterday compiling a list of “higher” paying freelance writing opportunities. My goal was to list markets paying over $100 but many paid so much more – several hundred into the thousands. Many of these opportunities are open to brand new writers as well. The thing that struck me was that they weren’t too difficult to find. If I could find 40 freelance writing jobs that pay $100 or more in a couple of days, how many more could I find if I took some time out each day.

I guess my point is the gigs are out there. Writers who wish to partake have to be willing to look beyond the usual job boards and give up a little of the instant gratification they’ve come to know working for the easy web content sites. Granted, the websites and magazines I listed aren’t for everyone, but if you’re one of the people who write to me every day asking if there are higher paying gigs to be had, my answer to you is “yes”. Now what are you going to do to get them?
