Ask HN: Freelance technical writing opportunities I'm looking for more information/ opportunities on freelance technical writing. I've recently been made aware of this niche, and was told it would be a good fit for me. I currently work as an engineer in the auto industry, and am interested in learning more about technical writing as a career. Thanks! |

And there are lots of posts out there. There are actually more posts about freelance writing, than about freelance programming. Whenever I look for articles about freelancing it seems that writers have the top spots in the Google.
In sum, it's a great field. The need for more content is increasing, and if you are good and make a name for yourself you'll make it.
I suggest that you make a goal to write X words a day. Also, writing a book will increase your Authority, and help you get more work.
Keep on writing.
