The Well-Fed Writer: Financial Self-Sufficiency As a Commercial Freelancer in Six Months or Less You CAN Make a GOOD Living as a Writer! Do you dream of earning a healthy income - 50K, 75K, even 100K or more - as a writer while living a wonderfully free and flexible lifestyle? Or perhaps make an extra $1500 - $2000/month part-time? Like the idea of being your own boss, getting up when you want, taking vacations when you want and working when you feel like it? Do you dismiss the idea as fantasy, since, after all, everyone knows that ‘starving’ and ‘writer’ are eternally joined at the hip? FACT: Businesses Need Writers, and Will Pay Handsomely For Them… Attention: Aspiring writers, career-changers, at-home Moms, journalists, staff writers, recent college grads, 55+ or anyone else interested in making a handsome living as a writer. Here’s your roadmap to hourly rates of $50-125+ – and a writing lifestyle most can only dream of – in the lucrative field of “commercial” freelancing. This 368-pager is the NEW heavily updated compilation of the TWO Well-Fed Writer “standards” (including the 2000 award-winning Book-of-the-Month Club selection of the same name) you’ve likely heard about forever... Why Commercial Freelancing? Writing drives business. In the course of communicating with its customers and employees, an average corporation generates an enormous volume of writing. Yet, in today’s downsized business world, the catchword is outsourcing. Many companies are asking: “Why pay salaries and benefits when freelancers – offering a range of talent and fresh “outsider” perspectives – give us only what we need, and only when we need it?” In TWFW, you’ll learn what those writing projects are, where they are, how to land them, and how to get hired again and again (even with less-than-brilliant writing ability…). As a commercial freelancer… * You’d be a well-paid highly respected professional in your community. * if you're a go-getter, you'll find plenty of work within any given major metro (and beyond). * You don’t have to be an incredible writer – that all of this is possible with decent, solid skills. A Surprisingly Accessible (and Lucrative) Writing Direction… With NO industry contacts, NO previous paid writing experience, and NO writing training, the author, Peter Bowerman, built a commercial writing business from fantasy to full-time in less than four months. Have an unusual niche? Live in a small town? Need to start part-time? Terrified of “sales and marketing”? It’s all here. Follow this step-by-step blueprint for leveraging your background into a profitable writing practice that moves light years beyond “starving writing”!
