I know that I am. I started writing when I was in second grade and I've been writing off and on ever since.
I love to write. Even when I'm driving in a car I find myself thinking about things to write about.
For example, I drive by the library and I think about writing about the services it provides. I go to the grocery store and I think about writing about how much money I'm saving.
Lately I've discovered a way to make money using my writing skills. One way is through mylot, but you already know that or you wouldn't be reading this.
I also go to this site: http://www.associatedcontent.com/join.html?refer=16990 and post short articles. The site pays me each time I write an article. So far I've gotten over $200!!!
If you decide to try this site out, let me know and post a link to your article so that I can read it.

I love that site and have been there for several months now. I make at least $300 a month there. This may not sound like a lot but when you factor in all of the other writing that I do, I am making enough money to be self-employed as a freelance writer. I love it! This has been my dream forever and a day now. Finally, I can stay home, write full time and homeschool my daughter.

Whenever I have free time between my steady writing gigs, I will submit an article to associated content. I have done ghostwriting for several clients, and I have worked on travel articles on the topic of Italy for a few websites. I enjoy writing medical articles because that is my professional field of work when I am not writing. I've sold articles on constant-content, and I bid for writing jobs at several online bidding sites. Craiglist is a good place to look for writing jobs.
I do not write for pennies, which is why I like associated content. They allow you to turn down an offer, and retain rights to your articles. I've not been offered less then $10 an article with them, and I wouldn't accept less than that for a 350wd article. It is a great place to showcase your work.

On the other hand, freelance writers shouldn't wait and wait and wait for someone to pick up their work at a high price when they don't have any publishing credentials in their portfolio already.
You have to start somewhere.

I got a freelance job as a writer, but while most of my experiences have been good, I do have one client who isn't paying. It's very frustrating.
Otherwise, it's a nice way to earn an extra income.

I write but only in emails and posting in forums. I wish I could write articles then I'd take advantage of your link.

I am also a freelance writer - and I wish that Associated Content would accept international writers! ALl the other work I do is sporadic and depends on many things.. associated content sounds very constant.
Is there anything like this for international writers? I would also love to know!

i do write. whether informal or formal writing. currently im into my school paper. i have a blog sites. www.bolt.com/jhaud and jhaud.blogsome.com. i just got started the 2nd url i gave. a friend invited me there.
writing is like a medium to me. whenever there's something that interest me, i write it. or or sometimes i prefer to write what i wanted to say than sharing it vocally. its relaxing.

I have always been interested in writing but I have never had the time until now. I have decided to get out of the rat race and try to make a living on my own. So far things are coming together for me and between me and my girlfriends resources we are doing ok. I am a member of AC too. You can look me up by my name Shawn Carpenter. Or go an visit my blog to link to my articles. http://spcbrass.blogspot.com
Best of luck to you!

Well i think what we do right now is being a writer already coz we keep on typing whatever comes on our mind and we put it on writing in a discussion like this. we are making money here alreadt, its just by bit by bit only.
