A Career in Freelance Writing

Does learning about new things excite you? Are you good in writing & interested to make it a career & earn money at home? Do you have 3-5 hours daily that can be spend on writing articles?  
Then freelance writing may be chosen as the best work at home career for you.

Don’t start dreaming on day one that you will be earning thousands which unfortunately most of us do. Becoming a writer needs to be taken seriously & if you can market your skills & prove it very well then we can see some good earnings that start showing every month.

Are we getting writing related jobs that are genuine?
You may ask this question quite often after getting confused & frustrated on seeing the type of freelance jobs or online jobs turning out to be fake in the internet.But,let me ask you one question – What makes you feel that someone will pay you thousands just by sending mailers or clicking or survey?
 With Internet growing massive day by day and millions of sites being introduced every year, all of them require fresh content related to their business and they search for writers that can meet requirement.

How can I become a writer? How to start?
The minimum requirements to enter into freelance writing career are having a reliable computer having a good internet connection. A pen drive to handle back-up is always advisable and then the most important factor is having a mentor to give guidance to become a writer & the secret ways to win a project.

Do I need a mentor to guide me?
Now this is entirely left to you, but I put up some questions that will support the decision to take up a mentor – Will you not feel supportive when someone guides you on the quality practices in writing articles? Will you not require guidance to know the type of projects that are floating around & how to bid on them? Will you not feel supportive when someone provides you real time work apart from conduction workshops to monitor your performance for being a professional writer? Will you not require assistance in writing some good proposals for winning the project? Phew…that is all.

How can I get myself a mentor ? what it costs?
Again, getting the right mentor is always the crucial part for any aspiring writer. Choosing the ones who are in profession for more than 4 years and being providing training to several writers who got success is very important. Depending upon location, the mentor may provide online or offline training.
A training program on freelance writing covers the Tips to become a freelance writer and also getting the chance on working with real time projects giving you the opportunity to start earning immediately after the training ends.
