Happy New Year FWJ!
Good writing job leads for the start of the new year Jodee.
Thanks!
Jodee,
Editors/Writers for Gotfolks Magazine is a no-pay position
I wish some of these job leads weren’t so ambiguous. Has anyone had any luck with these leads? Thanks!
What would I do without Freelance Writing Jobs in 2009? Be broke??
Hi,
I just wanted to point out that the Japanese translation job is actually for $80,000 (not $8,000), but will most likely be spread out among several translators due to the large volume of work and tight deadline of May. Thank you for posting translation jobs in general. I found a good one recently through a link provided on your website.
Actually, I am wrong about the $80,000. That amount is for 1 million words, and the project is 50 million words. So, 50 X $80,000 (I think).
This is such a good resource for writers everywhere. I’ve given it a mention at my blog. Happy 2009 everyone and increased earnings for all the dedicated writers out there.
