How I Entered the Freelancing World!


The freelancing world was not in my plans. I was completely happy working for JAAGO Foundation, an NGO based in Dhaka that worked to educated slum-based underprivileged children around the country. The work was awesome, and I loved it! 


I worked at JAAGO for 1.5 years - from July 2011 to December 2012 - as the Assistant Manager in the PR & Publication Department. I fell in love with the institution, with the people, with the environment, and especially with my work. It was only the daily commute that was literally killing me. 3 hours on the road everyday - 1 hour in the morning and 2 in the evening. It was exhausting, and I was tired all the time! I left the job at the end of 2012 before my daughter was born the next year. 

The next few months were for my daughter, and my daughter only. I wanted to go back to JAAGO - or at any other job - after a few months caring for my new-born. It was completely unthinkable for me to leave my new child and go back to a 8-hour job soon.

What Do Freelance Writers Write? - Part 1

If you are thinking of starting your freelance career online as a writer, you are in for a huge treat! There are literally hundreds of different kinds of content writing opportunities for you to try your hand at. From the easiest to the most complicated, I have put together a list of all the different kinds of writing jobs that you can find online.

(N.B. I primarily work on Upwork, and these types of jobs are the different ones that I have faced or experienced so far. There can, of course, be hundreds more that I am not yet aware of. Besides, it is better for me to explain the categories that I am experienced in personally.)

I am just going to list all the jobs and explain them in this particular post. Later, in separate posts, I will expand on the ideas for your convenience.
