UK Writers Wanted

Update: 14/04/2009 – Thanks for sending your emails, clips and resumes. There are no vacancies in the writing team at the moment, but follow the blog to find out when new opportunities come up.Â

Some of you may know that in addition to writing myself, I’m also an agent for a small team of writers. That means I get the clients, pass on the work to writers, check it’s ok and pass it back to clients. Writers get work without having to bid; I get a small cut – and I do mean small. You do most of the work; you get most of the money – that’s my view.

Now I’m on the lookout for a couple more writers, but with specific attributes. First of all, you must be familiar with the UK. I get a lot of UK-specific work. If you are good at writing about consumer finance (loans, credit cards, mortgages, insurance, banking and so on), that would be even better.

I have a couple of regular clients who are increasing their requirements, as well as new ones who are likely to. There’s plenty of work for someone who is conscientious, a good researcher and can meet tight deadlines. If this is you, drop me a line through my Writing Lab blog. Tell me about your writing experience.

If it sounds good, I will ask you to write a sample article for which you will get paid if the buyer likes it. (No scams, I promise you – I can even provide references who will prove that I pay up.) If the buyer doesn’t like it, you own the rights and can use it elsewhere. Either way, you will know within a couple of days. Hope to hear from you.
