Hi,
My name is Robert Earle Howells. Call
me Bob. I’m a freelance writer. A very successful one. I write for
great national magazines as well as ad agencies and websites. I know
the publishing business inside and out. Print and Web. I
get to travel the world and write about it, and get paid
very well. I make a great living doing what I love. I'd love to show
you how to do the same.
Yes, freelance
writing is the coolest job in the world.
I don’t have a boss. I set my own
schedule. I don’t drive to work. I take time off whenever I want.
Magazines pay me to travel all over the world, have cool experiences,
meet amazing people, and then write about them.
I’ve
been paid to travel to
tropical paradises, explore the backroads of America, survive on grubs
in the Amazon jungle, drive Route 66 in a brand-new Corvette,
helicopter to the best fly-fishing in the world, bicycle the route of
the Tour de France,
hike in the Andes, raft above the Arctic Circle in Swedish Samiland,
fly with the world’s greatest aerobatics pilot, snorkel with beluga
whales in Hudson Bay, kayak in Alaska, ride on the world’s fastest
motorcycle, fly in zero gravity high above the planet, relax in the
Four Seasons, huddle in a snow cave....
I mean, how many people do you know
who have been doing the same job for more than 30 years and still wake
up every morning eager to get to work?
It still astonishes me that people pay
me to write. To travel, to learn, to research, to meet people all over
the world—and to write about these experiences.
Write Where the
Money Is!
Will
show you how...
- To cash in on immediate
instant income using skills you already have.
- To realize your dream of getting
published, seeing your name in print, feeling the satisfaction and HUGE
BOOST TO YOUR CAREER that comes with being a published writer.
- To achieve a steady income
stream that requires no job, no boss, no commute.
- To set
your own hours, work when you want to, earn as much money as you
dare.
- Can you imagine earning a living
wherever you are? Even while your toes dangle in the water in some
tropical paradise?
Intrigued?
Here's an offer I doubt you can refuse:
Here’s a quote from that FREE CHAPTER:
If you can
bring real life experience to life on a page, you’re a writer. Fancy
turns of phrase, arcane vocabulary, scholarly allusions,
I’m-smarter-than-you-are attitudes—these don’t matter a whit. The world
wants information and inspiration. Supply plenty of both and you’ll be
amazed at your success.
Have a look. It will cost you nothing.
But you'll get a taste of what's detailed in my book's 150+ pages,
including:
- Exactly how to get your
first article published...even if no magazine or Web editor has ever
heard of you.
- Why most
queries to magazine editors end up in the trash.
- How to find the
best-paying markets for your writing.
- How to convert tasks
you perform every day into writing that can bring you instant
income. (And income for the rest of your life.)
- How to get
published even if you’ve never been published before.
- How to avoid
the pitfalls most writers experience. (Such as: slow response times,
slow payments, and [ugh] chintzy fees.)
- Hot to understand writer
contracts, what rights to sell, and how to negotiate with editors and
clients.
- How to make money
blogging, ghostwriting, or writing about the things you most love to do.
- How much to charge for
your writing. And how to ask for more.
- How to climb
out of the low-paying swamp and into the big-bucks world of glossy
national magazines.
- And, just maybe...How to get
editors to pay you to take dream trips!
I’ve been writing for a
living for more than 30 years.
Every page of my book is packed with
the lessons I’ve learned over a lifetime as a writer and editor.
Everything I tell you in WRITE WHERE THE MONEY IS works. I spell out
the exact steps to take to start, succeed, and potentially make tons of
money as a freelance writer. You can skim the free sample chapter alone
and
start making money as a freelance writer.

"Sadly, I can count on one hand
the number of people I know who love what they do for a living. One of
them is Robert Earle Howells.
While I was spending time hunched and sweating over a keyboard as a
professional writer in Corporate America, Bob was gallivanting across
the planet, having real adventures and writing great copy about it. Now
he's created this terrific book about how he pulled the strings to make
his writing life work, and very profitably.
Thanks
a
lot, Bob. I needed this book 30 years
ago!"

“But wait a
second, Bob. Isn’t writing a notoriously low-paying job?”
Absolutely. If you
focus on low-paying markets and accept the pathetic fees that many
publishers and clients get away with paying. If
you shoot only for long-shot, maybe-someday-I’ll-win-the-lottery work
like books, novels, and screenplays.
I WRITE WHERE THE MONEY
IS and I spell out how you can do the same. And
start earning money NOW.
This is practical, from-the-ground-up,
useful, actionable info that you can start applying tomorrow and begin
to realize the dream of making money as a freelance writer.
Speaking of
dreams...isn’t it time to stop dreaming?
Quick little story. Years ago, I was
making a pittance as a magazine editor, editing the copy turned in by
writers who were out having a whole lot more fun than I was in my 8–6
gig. The freelance side of the world looked pretty cool. But I was
stuck. I mentioned my dream to one of those freelancers. He gave me the
most practical advice I ever got:
“Go for it.
Hang out your shingle and declare yourself a freelance writer.”
I gulped. But I did it. And I’ve never
looked back for a second.
You don’t have to gulp. You have me to
help you. Whether you want to write for a few extra bucks a month or as
a lucrative, full-time career, WRITE WHERE THE MONEY IS is your road
map to a tremendously satisfying new way of life.
You can spend
the rest of your life pondering, wondering, preparing—while you go on
living the same old way. Or you can click on the button below and
discover a new universe of possibilities.
Hang out that shingle! Declare
yourself to be a writer.
Here’s to shared success,
Bob
