While there are thousands of jobs writers can do, below are some of my favorite job
opportunities to help you grow in your writing career.
1.
Freelance Wrting
From fiction to non-fiction and from articles to short stories to technical writing,
and everything in between, there are writing gigs for you. The best place to find writing
gigs is by checking the Freedom with Writing blog.
2. Fiverr
Fiverr in itself isn’t a job, but it is a site where you can post gigs of your choice.
Customers will ask for your help through your postings which can be writing blog posts
and article, editing novellas, or anything else related to writing (or anything really).
3. Editing
You can begin offering editing services if you know grammar, syntax, character
development, and story archs well. Create a website or post on social media.

4. Teacher
You don’t actually have to have a teaching degree to be a teacher. If you have a
bachelor’s degree, you can teach English to others, mostly children. There are alot of
site, but the one I use is VIPKID. You can use my referral code. If you sign up, let me
know and I’ll help you through it. In addition to teaching English, there are sites like
Udemy and Skillshare that will allow you to post your own courses. These sites allow
users to search through their database of courses. However, if you are able to
promote your own course, you can host it on your own website, use Facebook
groups, or use a course platform, like Teachable.
5. Coach
Are you great at writing, editing, computer science, mindset work, world
building, or anything really? In the same manner you can be a teacher, you can be a
coach. With coaching, you can offer one-on-one sessions, live training, group
sessions, and/or a coaching course.
6. Graphic Design
If you are good at Photoshop, Indesign, and/or Illustrator, you may want to be a
graphic designer part time. While you can do custom work via Fiverr, Freelancer,
or social media, you can make more money by creating downloadable, like
calendars, clipart, editable invitations, etc and sell the downloads on Etsy or
your own shop.
7. eBook Creator
Ebooks are super poplar right now. You can take information you already have in
your blog, downloads, and/or coaching programs and turn them into ebooks. Self-
publishing on Amazon is pretty easy. You can design the cover and the ebook itself on
Canva.
8. PLR Product Seller
PLR stands for Private Label Rights. There are thousands of people who create
software and ebooks. They then sell those products to PLR sites. Some products can
be given away for free. Most of them require you to sell the products. The majority of
products require you to maintain the original creators images and citations. Some
products allow you to create your own graphics, make edits, and private label them
(say that you created the items). You can sell these any where - Fiverr, your website,
Etsy, Amazon, and others.
9. Affiliate Links/Marketing
Whether you create blog posts with affiliate links or you have a store of all affiliate
products, you can make a comission off the products sold. It is a good way to make
passive income, but it is not as reliable as some sources of income.
10, Contact Center
Now days, many jobs can be done from the comfort of your own home. Being a call
center or chat specialist is no different. Why would you want to do a job like that?
Well, you probably wouldn’t except for the fact that they usually pay well and you
are able to “meet” alot of interesting people. People will end up telling you the
most interesting stories or be interesting characters themsleves, helping you with
your writing.
