Q&A: How can I get paid to write book reviews?

Find the address of some major publishing companies and write to their personnel or HR departments and ask if they’re hiring. Enclose a copy of your resume showing any relevant courses or experience.

Find some books/writers you really like and then write the publisher a nice cover letter and send them a resume.
