Combogalis asked:


I’m planning on becoming a writer and I was wondering how it is that writers find freelance work and what type of freelance work is available other than newspapers and magazines.
Edit: The only grammatical error is that I forgot to make it “for newspapers”

Lola asked:


I work 4 days a week, about 9-10 hours and have three days off in a row. I have a young child, planning a second soon, and love to write but have had a hard time turning it into a career. I’d like to eventually make it a full time career, but am not ready to take that leap. First of all, I make more money than my husband right now (he’s in school) and we need my job, and second, I don’t know yet if I would be successful, so it’s a lot to bank on. I do want to write professionally, by the way, not just as a hobby. So, how can I build up my writing career while working and still having time for family, etc.?

Miko M asked:


I have a BA in Japanese language and Literature, and although I can understand Jap’anese pretty well, I’m still far from fluent. I’d like to get a writing job as my future career because I love to write, but am stuck as to what kind of writing job. My interests are: music, japanese language & culture, animals, and different languages & cultures. Also as a bonus question, what are some good entry-level writing jobs that I should aim for? Thanks in advance!

Jonathan B asked:


I need to consult a service that specializes in writing top notch resumes. I have searched using Google and have not found anything. I need a resume written for an executive, professional, or C-level position. If there are online services (or even a free service) that do this, let me know that as well.

Cash asked:


I’m looking for potential leads on a job writing or editing in the greater San Bernardino area. I’m a slack journalism major with a little writing and editing experience (albeit from a few years ago) looking to get back in the biz. Anyone have any thoughts on places to check? Thanks.
