Notes to Writers Looking for Freelance Writing Jobs: Contact the editors/employers directly through the contact provided in the job listings. The links here are valid for the writing job described when I post them. If the link takes you elsewhere it's because the posting has changed and I can't help you find it; I truly have no way to track them.

  1. Freelance Contributor Needed for English Textbook Project

    I'm an American writer currently authoring a series of English textbooks on commission for a prominent Chinese publishing company. The series is a reader-companion targeted to Chinese middle school students. Each book is composed of ~36 short texts, each text focusing on a predetermined grammar point and/or vocab set and ending with five reading comprehension questions.

    The company wants 200-300 texts, of which I've completed about 60 already. I'm looking for a strong writer that can help me turn out the rest; the pay is 8-10 USD per article, with payments coming every 25 articles over PayPal. Based on my experience, it should take an average of one hour to write one text once you get familiar with the project.

    The challenge is this: create interesting and original texts for middle school children that stay within the confines of the language skills they've already acquired. The publishing company has given me free reign in terms of content (excluding politics, of course) and I'm determined to deliver texts that have some modicum of literary, moral, or civic value. Nothing boring, nothing useless.

    This job is ultra-flexible: do it any time, any where, and any amount. Figure a minimum of 8 texts a week, and no maximum; if you're delivering quality texts, you're free to write the rest of the series. I'll be editing for language and an editor at the publishing company will be editing for suitability.

    If you're interested, please reply ASAP. I'll ask you to write a sample text, but if the sample is acceptable it can certainly be counted towards pay. Email jonbaron@gmail.com
