Ummm, first you need to know how to spell and use correct grammar including punctuation. I suggest you try a different means of earning money such as yard work.

If you are young enough to be concerned about your Dad giving you pocket money, I'm not sure you are experienced enough to offer yourself as a writer for hire. Further, you really need to work on your grammar before you take a run at anything. Just for starters, your question should read, "My Dad doesn't give me enough pocket money. I've heard writers earn money by writing." Now in the first line, you have referred to 'there stuff' and in the second, 'their stuff' so you obviously do know the grammar, which makes me think this whole question is a hoax.
Ha ha.

Hone up on your writing skills, pay attention in class, tell your teacher of your goals and I think you will get extra attention. You are entitled to an education, insist on it. Is there a school newspaper you can work for? That might be another avenue to learn how to write the way a journalist does.
