I was into marketing all these years and along came a job in media-monitoring which brought out the hidden skills in me. I tried out my hand at writing. So here I am, writing freelance and working as a full-time editor in the same media-monitoring company. @Craig There are many sites like oDesk.com, peopleperhour.com, mytino.com etc. where you can register your profile and get good writing jobs. Good luck, Vijay @Bob

Great stuff. How does one find people who need to have articles written? In my own small way, I am sputtering toward beginning a home-based weekend writing/editing business. I work as a technical writer and editor of computer applciations, so I have that in my favor. I have a BS in biology, an MA in English, and a Technical Writing Certificate. I believe I'm qualified, but I don't know how to get started. Any suggestions? Craig I just found your blog and am reading your series. Great stuff.

As I had alluded to on Twitter, I'll be sending you an email later today. Your words here are speaking directly to me - I think we have a lot in common, and I expect you'll see in time that I will be following in your footsteps, in many ways. Thanks for the words.
