What does a remote freelance writer do?

As a remote freelance writer, you work from home to create written content for digital and print mediums. In this independent contract role, you may research information, write blog posts and articles, help write a book, update a website or social media outlet, and provide input on content for a publication. You often work through agencies that find clients and assign content for you to write, but it is also possible to work directly with the client to produce and edit content. The material you write could be as short as a few hundred words or as long as hundreds of pages, depending on the contract. You typically write longer material in stages so it can be edited and reviewed piece by piece.
