Does anyone know where I can find/work as a freelance writer online? I am a full-time college student and don't have a full eight hours straight to devote to a regular job. Instead I have a few hours here and there and that's different hours depending on the day of the week because of my class schedule. I have been writing online articles for a few places, but the more places I can find the easier it is to make sure I have enough money to pay my bills. Please help if you know of anywhere online that hires freelance writers.
Thanks
