Writing work is not always easy to get. Just recently a number of people have asked me how I get writing work. I have to admit that only a little of it comes from bidding; most of the paid writing that I do has been more a result of luck and meeting the right people. Of course it always helps that I write understandable English and am careful to proofread. A few people read my blogs and liked what they saw I guess . All the same I have been very lucky in the way I have managed to get writing work.
