We all need money to live. If you can't quit your day job (yet) to write poetry full time, you can still earn a living as a writer. This presentation at the 2024 annual Nebraska Writers Guild conference will uncover job opportunities for writers in businesses and nonprofits — and how to get them. From the first $40 gigs to full-time freelancing, learn from my experience as a freelance ghostwriter, social media manager, in-house and agency content writer, editor, and copywriter.
