Your Turn: What’s Your Definition of a “Good” Freelance Writing Job?

by 11 Comments

Thumbs up

Credit where it’s due: I’m writing this in response to a Skype conversation I had with Mark Narter, a friend and writer who doesn’t have a huge online presence but writes full time for a local business. Every now and then Mark pings me to talk about something I wrote and whether or not he agrees with me. After I posted a peek into my portfolio, Mark wondered what makes my past experiences good ones. What do I consider a “Good” freelance writing job. The money? The glory? The opportunity?

I love questions that make me think. So when a friend wonders what I consider a worthy freelance writing opportunity, I’m all over it.  I don’t believe all gigs are good gigs. I worked plenty of sucky jobs. For example, some really boring SEO work and a content site that was more interested in using the right keywords than whether or not the content made sense. The content site gig didn’t last because the pay didn’t justify the work and my boredom with the subject matter. The SEO gig paid quite well. Still, it wasn’t what I would consider a “good” gig.

Keep in mind that that each writer has his own definition of what makes a “good” gig. Here’s my list:

  • It pays well
  • I enjoy the work
  • I earn a profit
  • I have a byline
  • I put forth my best effort
  • Others respond to what I wrote

Now, I may not have written for many “huge” names, but I can say with all honesty that I landed plenty of “good” gigs.  Tell us about you. What makes a “good” freelance writing job? What are some of your favorites?

So as of Wednesday evening, we’ve been socked with a foot of snow and another five to ten inches expected over night. Part of me is thankful I have a job that enables me to stay inside during such weather, and part of me wishes I could take a snow day too.

Freelance Writing Jobs for February 10, 2010

by 20 Comments

Good morning, Freelance Writing Jobs community. School is canceled for today and possibly tomorrow, thanks to the impending blizzard, so I’m working ahead on Tuesday night. Another reminder of how it’s good to have a backup plan in place for every situation. That isn’t to say I can’t work when my son is at home, just that it’s harder to get as much done. Besides, I may want to go outside and do some sledding or have a snowball fight.

Wherever you are I hope you’re warm and dry. Check in and tell us what’s going on in your neck of the woods.
