Where I Search For Freelance Writing Jobs

These are the places I search for the paid writing jobs I post here. The order doesn't matter. I also encourage you to look in the classified section of your local newspapers - I've gotten good writing jobs that way. If you're near a university or college, see if they post jobs.
