Freelance writers'
markets are publications, businesses or organizations that will
give freelance writing assignments to writers.
A
freelance writer is a person who pursues a
career as a writer without a long-term commitment to any one employer.
There are many
different types of writers'
markets. Historically many freelance writers would work with
just one type of writing market, for example, magazines. Now,
especially due to the Internet and online communication, it is
common for freelance writers to diversify and work for all sorts
of writers' markets.
Writers' markets can include:
- magazines
- newspapers
- web sites
- publishing houses
- ezines and newsletters
- businesses
- charities
- greeting card companies
- and more.
As you can see, freelance writers can be hired to write many
different types of material. However, many freelance writers get
started by writing articles for freelance writers' markets such
as magazines, newspapers, and web sites. These are probably
still the most popular types of
writing markets.
There are thousands of writers' markets
that you can work with as a freelance writer. At Worldwide
Freelance Writer we list over 2,400 writing markets in our
