Where are people actually finding writing jobs right now?
I’ve noticed I keep circling the same 3 places when I’m looking for writing work and I’m wondering if I’m missing anything.
Freedom With Writing is usually where I start. I mostly go through the weekly roundups and save anything that looks even remotely viable. A lot of it doesn’t pan out but enough does that I keep checking. It’s slow but it’s consistent and occasionally something real comes out of it.
Remote Writing Jobs is what I check when I don’t feel like sorting through vague or unpaid posts. Everything has a rate listed which honestly changes how I approach pitching. I’m more decisive because I already know if it’s worth my time.
LinkedIn is the most unpredictable. I’ve applied to things there and heard nothing but I’ve also had random posts or comments turn into work weeks later. It feels less like a job board and more like being in the right place at the right time.
That’s basically my loop right now. Not super strategic just what I keep coming back to.
Would love to know where people are actually finding paid writing work lately.
