One of the keys to a successful freelance writing business is shameless self-promotion. Freelance Switch lists 12 ways freelancers can promote themselves, and most of them do apply to writers.
My favorite is, of course, write a book, or an ebook, or more than one. I like these because I’ve done it and it works. I want to explore how to write a blog post for Digg’s front page… that will be a stretch!
What’s easiest for you? And what would you like to stretch into?
Write well and often,
Two newsletters:

Er…I mean Anne, not Allena. That’s what I get for trying to comment quickly :p
Thanks for this link, Allena! Those are some great ideas for self-promotion, and I’m going to look into the ebook thing.
interesting perception, Allena… you’re right, most of them are write for free, but as I recall they are mostly one shot things… and some, like the aim for the digg front page involve writing bloggers are already doing… hmmmm
I saw that post earlier today. A lot of people were not happy that most of those were basically “write for free” suggestions.
