Get paid for writing.

If you’re someone who loves the written word and who has wondered if you can get paid for writing, the answer is an emphatic yes. It is true that some kinds of writing can get you paid more easily and faster, but this is why MulitTalented writers are at a great advantage in this field.

We can work hard to get paid for our words so we can have time and money to invest in the kinds of projects that we want to do for fun. Writing can be both our hobby as well as our work. Plus, we have many more opportunities to get paid for our writing, because we’re not afraid to set foot in new fields, research, and write our best.

Don’t let people deter you from a life as a writer just because they don’t have vision enough to see that creative work is valuable, sellable, and what’s more—you’re good at it and can make it work, and you can get paid for your writing.

In this section of the blog you’ll find suggestions and links to various publications that pay writers for their work—and pay them well. Most of the posts in this section contain “evergreen” opportunities, meaning they’re not calls for pitches but information about publications that will pay for writing at various times of the year. Have a look, make a list, start pitching.
