Whatever category you belong to, you need a start. So I suggest you to do some homework on writing techniques. You must have a grip on the language in which you are going to write. Secondly and most importantly you should have something written by you to show employers which can give them an insight of your writing ability. So whether you want to be a full time freelance writer or part time freelance writer, you need to write something which you can present to employers at the interview or first negotiation. Here are some tips which can help you to write an article of 2-3 paragraphs which can be a way opener in your career.
