There are a lot of places where you can go on the internet to get writing jobs in huge quantities. When you get to these places, you will look for adverts on writing jobs that meets your interest and then apply to them and wait for their reply. it varies depending on the type of advert and who posted it.

For Instance: http://www.freelancewriting.com is well loaded with many writing jobs that you alone can not finish in two months.

When you see a writing job that cuts your interest, the next thing to do immediately how to respond to the advert and get the job to yourself.

Make sure your application is well proofread to avoid wrong spellings and mistakes. In writing your application and resume, try everything possible to make him/her believe you are competent, liable, available, and sincere for the job.
HOW DO I PRICE MY SERVICE?
In most cases, the advertiser states how much he or she is ready to pay for the job. But in a case he or she didn't give any price, they will ask you to send them your own price for the job. For the fact that you are still a starter, it's not good to over price yourself or under price yourself instead, price yourself to be in between the two. In a case that you have already gotten the job but later realized that you under priced yourself, just try and finish the job as early planned, submit it and then write them, telling them that they should please consider adding a little more money for you because the was not all that an easy one to do. While doing this, it should be in a very polite voice and also in a pleading manner because they didn't force you to take up the job. They may later consider putting something for you or not, but just take it like that and price very well on your next job.
WHERE TO GET THE MATERIALS TO WRITE YOUR ARTICLE
No need giving yourself sleepless night because where to get materials to use or start jumping from one library to the other in search of materials. Just use the internet because it is the largest library ever in the whole world, and no topic has not been written on. Just visit http://www.google.com type the topic you are looking for, and then click on search. If it opens and what you see is not in line with what you are writing on, it may be that you are not typing the proper key words that will the results you want. Therefore, change the words or phrases. Study the articles that came out from your search and then in your own language, write the article to suit your client. Never you copy somebody's work because it's called "PLAGIARISM" and it's a serious crime. Your client will still definitely know that you copied someone's work.
WRITING/BUILDING YOUR ARTICLE
Note that your article should be very rich with information and must be well expressed. It’s all about communicating the ideas in such a manner that everyone will understand you perfectly. Just make a list of all the points that you will be including in your write-up. Then building it up is just putting together those point that you wrote down. Do this with explanation and illustration and taking it one after the other in full details.
HOW TO SEND YOUR ARTICLE
After you are through with writing your article and spell checking, then you transfer it to your client through the internet. He may give you a particular method with which you will transfer it. If he doesn't give you any method, then you have to send it like an attachment with your mail for him to receive it. Also you can still use the compressed zip folder to send it because it will help to reduce the size and make it faster to attach to your mail. To zip your article, right click on it, a box appears point to "Send To" and click compressed zip folder.
HOW TO COLLECT YOUR PAYMENT
