The Kind of Writing Job You Can Apply
freelance writing jobs
There are two main categories of writing jobs in the literary market. You have technical writing job and creative writing job. There are editing writing job which fall under the technical category, and freelance writing job which usually fall under the creative category.
Technical writing jobs are boring, are they not? You’re stuck with writing manuals or editing someone else’s work, and you need to follow a schedule. You have to finish that manual by a certain deadline, and manual writing can be one of the most tedious and monotonous writing job available.
You might feel jealous the entire time you’re editing their work and this not only affects your work, but it affects your overall mood. Who wants to spend their days feeling jealous for someone else’s job?
On the other hand, writing manual is a consistent and stable writing jobs. People don’t really care how well written it is, as long as they can understand it. You can just edit someone else’s work and let the author and publishing company worry about that. As long as you catch everything, you still have a job and a stable paycheck.
For creative writing job, the first downside is the lack of a stable income. There is a much bigger risk involved in creative writing job.
Creative writers are free to write about whatever they want. Publishers don’t have to publish the book, so creative authors often will have to listen to the feedback and criticism they get from the publishers. There is also a lot more pressure on creative writers. If it doesn’t sell, they don’t get paid. But if it does sell, then they reap a huge reward.
If you’re really creative, then it’d be hard for you to take on technical writing job. You won’t enjoy it, even if you are capable and qualified for the job. If you aren’t creative, on the other hand, and have a knack for grammar and spelling, definitions and sentence structure, then creative writing will only leave you perpetually stumped.
Post stories online and see how people respond to them. If you like to correct other people and you like order in everything you read, then try editing some author’s work, or try writing a manual for an upcoming product and see how it feels.
