  58. 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

If you're looking for fulltime or regional work, check Deborah Ng almost always daily jobs for writers - includes full-time and in-house listings, or  PoeWar.com and Writers Weekly. PoeWar also publishes guidelines for articles and gets notice when magazines and others are looking for specific pieces... there's a ton of good stuff on this site.
