As a freelance writer, you will research, write, and edit pieces for clients. Now, you may be thinking that you need an English degree to be a writer, but the truth is, anyone who enjoys writing can do it professionally. The types of projects you take on will vary depending on your prior knowledge, skill set, experience, and interests. The best piece of advice for anyone who wants to be a freelance writer … Keep writing! The more you write, the better and faster you’ll get. Also, make sure you’re investing in your professional development by reading and participating in courses, webinars, and training.

Here are a couple of books that can help you on your writing journey.
7. Christian Proofreader or Editor
There are many Christian writers and publications that need their work edited and proofread. If typos and grammar errors jump out at you, use these skills to make money proofreading and editing Christian works. While you can search for freelance gigs on sites like Fiverr, Upwork, and Legiit, you may want to create a dream list of Christian clients and start pitching your freelance services.
To find clients, you can search on Amazon for Christian authors, publishing houses, and magazines. You can also search locally, reaching out to churches, Christian colleges, and nonprofit ministries to see if they need a proofreader for their newsletters, bible study handouts, sermons, or service programs. Lastly, check with Christian-based schools and universities, they have course materials that need your well-trained eyes.
