Write What You Know

If you truly love to write, there is definitely an online market for you work.

Every writer certainly feels passionate about more than a few topics and probably has some professional expertise on an assortment of interesting subjects.

When you think about these options, I believe you will see several potential article choices - like

1. working moms
2. women in business
3. Internet marketing
4. website development
5. parenting tips
6. self-help suggestions
7. inspirational ideas
8. motivational thoughts
9. "how-to" lists and similar subjects.

If you focus on finding freelance markets that match your interests, I think your ability to make money with your writing will become much simpler and less stressful.
