Silly lady. It depends on your experience. Go to mediabistro.com and check out how much people with similar experience and similar jobs make. It could seriously vary between minimum wage to $100 an hour. If you are inexperienced, expect very little. Good luck
2 :
Most freelance writing work is charged per word. The amount to charge per word depends on your experience, what you want to write, and a lot of other factors.

You should charge per word or per project. You can register at freelance websites like http://getafreelnacer.com/ , http://scriptlance.biz/ , http://eufrelance.com/ ,etc and start bidding for all writing projects posted there .
