Hey Anne,
I love what you have going here for fellow writers.
I am somewhat new to applying for jobs and your information has been extremely helpful.
One thing that is becoming clear, I need a professional Freelance Writer Resume to send in. I have no idea about how to begin to put one together.
My writing experience and samples are somewhat limited in the form of currently published work, be it website publishing or otherwise.
I would love to know just what a writer resume should look like, include and not include. What do you suggest? Thanks so much for all you do.
SA
Hey yourself SA,
Really glad you like what I’ve got going on her for freelance writers. It’s fun to do.
I use a credit list instead of a resume for my freelance writing. There I simply list the writing I’ve been paid for. I rarely have a need for a hard copy these days since I have my own website. If you don’t have your own website you should. If the writing I’ve done has a link I’ll link to it.
As you’ll see when you look at mine, I’ve grouped my writing into several categories, like books, online, blogging, etc. But I’m able to do that because I’ve been writing for years. If you’ve only got a couple of things you don’t need to categorize them. Don’t be embarrassed if you have few credits; we all started with none.
When you look at my writing credit list, please don’t be discouraged. I’m getting darn close to old and I’ve been writing most of my adult life. Just look and see what you can use and go for it. You’ll find my writing credits here.

are you sending me an application with your resume or wanting to sell your services?
Jim, what? your email indicates your an insurance agent… if you’ve subscribed to my newsletters by mistake there’s an unsubscribe at the bottom of each one. If you’re asking me a question about freelance writing I don’t understand it so far.
