ok, this may sound really stupid but my father insist's I replace my now broken laptop myself. Only problem with that is I don't have a job, and can't get one due to school, and all the studying and extra-curricular junk i've been doing. Please if you can help me find someone who can pay me for my writing, including short fictions and poetry I would be really grateful.

Don't lecture me on how poetry is free either,nothing is free in this economical mess, everthing's getting more expensive, and peaple aren't getting any richer. So PLEASE help!

Go look online at job sites who need someone to edit writing or so.
Or you can write a book and get it published.

If you want to write for money you should have at least writing skills that are at graduate level and you should have taken a couple of courses on literacy analysis.

Type up several pages of your story. Multiple copies. Put a hat down on the corner and pass out pages of your story. If people like it they'll put money in the hat. Try it. But you might have to get a buskers' license first.

The answer is no. Get an actual job. Your writing and spelling (judging from your posting) are awful. No market today for short stories or poetry. Go to work at a real job.

There are Grants available for almost everything, even school.
You do not need to pay these back, these are called grants that you can write for. Contact me for further details.
or
Do a web search www.grants.gov

Well I can not see anyone paying you for that. I suggest you get a real job like working in the Copy Centre at Staples. That way you can not production work and get paid for it.

I have not submitted anything to Constant-Content (I haven't finished writing)
See if it is something that interests you.
constant-content.com/

Associated Content (they make an offer which you accept/reject), the pay is very low.

there are all sorts of grants from the government and you NEVER have to repay it if you can get one :) example you can get one to start your own business or for personal needs or healthcare needs etc etc im sorry if this cant help you out but i tried :)
