Where Can I Find More Writing Gigs?
Look for freelance writing, editorial, proofreading, and writer jobs at these fine places:
- Constant-Content
This may be a good place to sell your reprints once you've sold the original to the highest paying publication and the rights have
reverted back to you. Just sign up, upload your reprint, get it accepted, and wait for someone to buy reprint rights. The only difference
between letting it sit on your hard drive, waiting for someone to buy it, and uploading to Constant-Content is that you have a third party
helping you sell reprint rights.
- Craigs List
This is a good place to find writing gigs for small businesses, low paying publications, as well as regular writer-related jobs but
please do your homework as it is also host to lots of scammers.

Commission Based Sites
Tread lightly when it comes to taking on anything based on commission only, promises of revenue share, or popularity basis.
You can waste some of your best writing time waiting for those "big checks" to roll in. It's best to only rely on such sites as
marketing tools or hobby sites.
And remember, to really make money on these type of sites, you must socialize with other members and share your article links with
non-members. You can't just write and wait for the checks to roll in.
