    How would I do this if I am currently studying my degree? Any tips would be appreciated :)

      Really great question - I recommend you start writing to build your portfolio. Even if oyu can write just one article in a month, then you have a sample of writing you can show a potential client or recruiter. Definitely start networking on LinkedIn too. What degree are you studying at the moment?

    Do you need to be published beforehand or can you just have writing that you've done in your own time?

      Great question! You do NOT need to be published- you can have writing you have done in your own time

    I am a health care professional ,Dentist, with excellent writing skills and a sound knowledge in Medicine. I want to know if I can work from India, I am an Indian national.
    I have seen new south hampshire university, online medical writing costing around 2000 dollars for 6 months, but before signing up for it , i want to know if the medical writing market take up freelancers from India as well for freelancing or do we need to belong and have an education from US or UK to freelance for them?

      Great question, I recommend you ask New South Hampshire University if their course teaches you what you need to enter a UK or US market as a medical writer. From my experience, it is possible to work for a UK or US client if your location is India and you have a portfolio or writing samples to show your skills. I like to believe that everything in life is possible, so there is a market, the hard part is finding the client - there is no shortcut to this, I would recommend you start sending people messages to build relationships and improve future job prospects. I do have starter, more affordable, courses here if you want to check them out: writeclinic.thinkific.com/collections

      @@writeclinic Thank you for responding. I have seen the website. Thank you for making it practical, accessible and affordable. I have seen the 12 course module in the intro video, and it looks like it is a perfect place to start from. I get a sense that it is a beginners guide and not a certification course, please correct me if I am wrong.
