Granted, Craigslist isn’t a reliable place to find writing clients–there isn’t a guarantee they’ll pay your invoices on time (or at all) or offer a fair price for your web content. But this doesn’t necessarily mean it’s impossible to find writing clients on Craigslist–in fact, one of my highest paying clients found me through Craigslist.

If you’re familiar with Associated Content, you’re probably familiar with Sabah Karimi, who was featured on The Early Show in 2008 for her work with Associated Content.

But what’s more remarkable is how fast she gained success working as a freelance writer: she had only written professionally for two years prior to winning Associated Content’s Content Producer of the Year award. She also released The AC Source Book in 2008, a blueprint for maximizing earnings with Associated Content. 2009 proved to be an equally fruitful year: Demand Studios honored her with their Top Content Creator award, an award only given to a handful of writers.

If you’re planning on creating an article for Demand Studios, you will need to reference at least one source in your article, regardless of how much you personally or professionally know about the subject. This helps editors verify the information in the article for accuracy, any bias and proper accreditation.

Jessie Haynes recently explained the deets behind her own writing schedule, so I want to share mine with you: the High/Medium/Low method. With the High/Medium/Low Method, you simply rank your writing tasks in order, from highest priority to lowest priority. With the High/Medium/Low Method, you get plenty of flexibility, without the hassle of sticking to hour-by-hour schedules.

As you may have noticed, Writing Job Resource went on a slight month hiatus – not planned at all, so I apologize for that. I’ve been juggling some clients and working non-stop, so unfortunately WJR took a backseat. I still intend on keeping WJR active, with regular posts starting later this week.
