Hi,
I am going to need a writer or two coming up in the next few months.

Please PM me with your rate, turnaround time and links to samples (please do not do any new writing for this request).

I will respond with the details of the assignment.

Thanks in advance.

Just a suggestions but you might want to post *some* details like how many articles and the length expected and the topic. Otherwise it can be difficult to supply rates and turnaround times.

It will also help if you give us an idea of what topics or industry you need writers for.

Exactly. Plus, it saves both the client and the potential writer time when we have at least some idea of what's involved; if I know the topics/general area, I know whether or not I'm a good fit for the project.

I agree. You don't have to give us all the information but it would save time to know what type of articles you are looking for, word count and a basic idea of the pay rate. There is nothing more frustrating than playing email tag only to find out that the articles require special knowledge or that the pay is lower than what you are willing to take.

Hi,
Thanks for your comments.

The writing will be building out a companion blog for an ecommerce site. The writing will have the same subject as the ecommerce store but will expand on some of the products and provide ideas for using the products.

I hope that helps.

Many thanks to everyone that PM'd me. I will be back in touch with those whose skills seem like a good fit.

Thanks again!
