Taking Writing to the Next Level

I often talk about how I think freelance writing is a great source of alternate income for those who enjoy doing it. It lets you express your thoughts, feeling and opinions on a variety of things you care about. Whether it’s through a free service like Helium or your own blog, some people like to earn an income through their writing as well!

Another option available to writers besides those listed above would be a self-publishing service. Typically these firms would help you hone your writing skills and guide you through the publishing process. Other bloggers like LIP (Location Independent Professional) suggest finding a mentor to help you get your bearings and run a proper business. One such service that can do just that is AuthorHouse, who assigns a personal writing advocate to each client to help them achieve their goals and of course publish a book.
