&lt;div class="asl-wikipage-summary"&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Working as a freelance writer can offer a lot of flexibility while providing exposure to a variety of industries and topics. Freelance writer, editor, and publicist Lindsey Gobel has been freelancing for a number of years, so most of her clients come from referrals or word of mouth. There are some websites where freelancers can find work, such as Freelancer.com and Upwork.com. One note of caution, Gobel says - many of these sites are subscription based and come with a monthly fee, or, they will take a percent of the fee you are charging clients. She recommends freelance writers consider joining the Society of Professional Journalists (SPJ.org) as a great source for networking. Gobel also recommends being flexible with payment terms. Depending on the project, she charges some clients hourly and others on a by-project basis. In the end, you want to make sure your rates are fair and work well for both you and the client.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
