I'm an experienced content writer without a degree and I've found that it is almost impossible to land a writing job with any company / website owner even though I am eager to work. Is there no provision in the freelance market for writers without a degree? Why should a person's expertise be dictated by a degree in a field that may be totally unrelated to what they're applying for?

P.S. I am a professional content writer with 2 years experience in the field. I am also currently unemployed and searching for people who need help with writing articles for their websites.

Any thoughts?
