Four Proven Strategies for Earning Immediate Income with Your Writing Skills
I’ve written about how new writers can get started on Medium. It’s a topic that came up again recently when my youngest son (who’s in college) stayed at our place for the holidays. He needs to get another part-time job to pay the bills.
I suggested writing jokingly (since he’s already up to his eyeballs in papers in his various classes), but he took me seriously. So I updated my list and looked for more off-the-beaten-path sources. This is the list I compiled, along with some suggestions. I hope you can benefit from this collection as well.
