ghostwriting (writing books and articles for others – when working as a ghostwriter, the writer's name doesn't appear on the work)short books for children (educational publishers often provide a pathway into publishing – some writers choose to stay there)content for websites (the Internet is ever-hungry for content, and there are always jobs for freelance writers)copywriting jobs (promotional material for companies; flyers, brochures and catalogues; internet sales pages)technical writing (contract work or part-time work for companies writing technical material – this area offers a wider range of work than most writers realise)Using Writing Skills in the Workplace
They need to make money from writing [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and the sooner the better. The trouble is, writing a novel is generally a slow process. Years can go by before a writer sees any money at all. Often, fiction writers are faced with a choice: keep writing because they love it (and stay poor) or switch to writing something that pays.
Solution A: Stay in a 9-5 job, and write (for the love of it) in any available spare time. The benefit is that writers who truly enjoy their work actually look forward to sitting at the computer for a few hours after dinner – it doesn't feel like 'work'.
Solution B: Compromise. Work part-time hours (perhaps accepting a reduced standard of living) and write on days off. This may mean that there's only just enough money to pay the bills and eat, but nothing left over for treats or holidays.
Those who decide they are comfortable writing in any genre or form can find many jobs. Here are just a few working-from-home ideas for writers:
It's a tempting prospect: being able to sit down every day and earn a good income doing what you love. Most writers don't have that luxury. To give writing the time they'd like, they have to quit their jobs. But if they stop work... the money stops too. They have to face the facts: the mortgage doesn't pay itself [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and there's no fairy godmother in real life to leave groceries on the doorstep.
People usually start writing because they love it. They love coming up with a plot; they love creating characters, and they love the joy of getting lost in the writing process. They don't want to give this up and write something they don't like, just to make money. What are their options?
Setting up a Home Business: Making Money Writing
Often, writers who are desperate to escape the 9-to-5 workplace overlook writing opportunities within
Some writers are quite happy wearing different writer's hats. They enjoy playing with words, regardless of what they write. They're equally at home writing books for children, short stories, articles, or ghostwriting books and website content for others. These writers are lucky indeed; they can apply their talents to many different writing projects. Countless people have built solid writing careers out of freelance writing.
So how does a writer decide whether to write for the love of it, or to write for money?
Solution C: If writing is important enough, think about making major sacrifices – for example [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], relocating to a small town where houses can be bought cheaply, or selling a house and renting for a year with part of the proceeds. Warning: this should not be undertaken lightly! Consult with anyone else who will be affected by this decision.
