From Crickets to High-Paying Clients: Get Paid to Write

You’ve got the writing chops.

But…your inbox is silent.

Your pitches?

Ghosted. (Yes, I see you refreshing your email and checking the Wi-Fi)

Your bank account? Not exactly thrilled about your “side hustle passion project.”

If you’ve been wondering how to actually get paid to write (even if you aren’t the world’s best writer) this online, self-paced course is for you.

When I started freelance writing on the side while holding down a full-time job, I made every mistake:

I said “Yes” to the first rate offered to me,

I waited too long to pitch,

I didn’t know what “marketing” was and how to use it to get work.

I wasted time gathering online advice from people who hadn’t written a real article in years.

I read a ton of books, articles, and took some courses on freelancing but no one told me how to get over my fear of sending that first pitch and how to turn “my ideas” into actual money.

No one explained how to turn my writing into income in a way that made sense, was mapped out, and was realistic for a busy professional.

If you’ve ever felt stuck at “how do I start?”

Or “how do I find someone who’ll pay me to write?”

And, “how do I get repeat work?” Know THIS

You aren’t the problem.

You just haven’t been taught what to do.

Or, you’re gathering information and resources, but you haven’t learned how to turn it into action instead of paralyzing overwhelm. (Been there, friend!)

That’s why I created Get Paid to Write.

It’s a step-by-step, self-paced course that walks you through exactly how to go from unpublished to paid.

(Or even “published 1 or 2x” to CONSISTENTLY getting freelance work.)

Inside, you’ll learn how to find pitchable ideas, the RIGHT way to reach out to editors, and tips on how to land paid writing assignments even if you don’t have clips.

I’ve helped hundreds of writers break in (and break through) to earn their first bylines and checks.

“I don’t have a single clip but I’ve always had natural writing talent under my belt. I’ve already invested quite a bit into courses to help me get my freelance career off on the right foot and have pretty much met my budget, but…your experience as an editor I think really sets your freelance writing course apart from the rest (and admittedly is a big draw for me). I feel like there are loads of people out there with courses, but the ones who really have it dialed in are few and far between.” – Angelina D.

“My goal was to go full time with freelancing and reading her course chapters definitely motivated me. I have people come to me from time to me asking how I got started--this course is the perfect place for me to send them!” - SJ McShane

I’ll show you how to get published. You don’t need fancy credentials.

You just need a system.

Your next paid assignment is closer than you think. Let’s go get it.

Course students have gone on to get published in:

 Real Simple, Martha Stewart Living, Oxygen, MSN, Columbia Journalism Review, Livestrong,AARP, Shondaland, Robert Irvine magazine, Food Network, Yahoo! Muscle & Fitness, and more

“Diana's Get Paid to Write course offers a step-by-step playbook for becoming a freelance writer. Her tips on how to find editors and use social media as a marketing took were particularly helpful. I really liked that there are course notes as well as a video for each lesson, so I could choose how I read/viewed the information. Even though I've been freelancing for a number of years, I have a page full of notes. Tips like adding "article pitch" rather than just "pitch" as a subject line and the guidance on how to use social media are things I'm going to incorporate into my routines!” - Stephanie Mickelson, a freelance writer

I can’t wait to see you inside the course and help you start getting paid.
