Good advice for newbies

I hate it when people assume that writing is something that "just anyone" can do.

Case in point:

Dear Katharine Sawn,

Hey there..!! First and formost I just want to "Thank You" personally for takeing the time out of your personal schedule for takeing the opportunity to read my following e-mail.

I was putting some consideration on freelance writeing, and I just had a few question's to ask of you.

1. My first question is..I want to write on certin topics, and can I sell my personal views or personal advice..to the public beside's magazines and newspaper articles?

2. I want to sell my articles on my own with my own materials how much should I charge..?

3. How long does it have to be meaning pages..? Can freelanceing go into writeing book's..?

I think thats all the questions I have to ask at the moment until these questions get answered. Again I just want to "Thank You" personally takeing the time out of your busy schedule to read my following questions..

Sincerely Yours,

F.M.

F.,

Thank you for your email. Unfortunately, before you attempt to sell your work as a writer, you need to work on your spelling and grammar. There are many errors in your email, leading me to believe that either English is not your first language, or you lack some of the necessary education. Writing is not like flipping burgers at McDonalds: You can't start your career without first getting the necessary education and skills.

Writing is a profession. Please treat it like one. Once you have a good understanding of English spelling and grammar, I'd be happy to advise you on your career.

Sincerely,
Katharine Swan
