Freelancers do not have "jobs." They are self-employed. You have to find clients in your area of specialization, or magazine articles, or whatever your specialization is. You need samples of your work for publication, and/or client references, work samples, recommendations, etc. What's your area of specialization, and what are your credentials for that?

goto sites like odesk.com or rentacoder.com. There are hundreds of projects for "writers" just bid for something that you think you might be able to do. You can also visit http://www.spotthings.com and look for freelance work for writers.

There are plenty of legit freelancing sites where you can sign up for free, create a profile, and bid for jobs across the globe. In your case, you can try to use any voice recognition or dictation software that can help you type easily. Also, you can put up your own portfolio website and put links to your work samples there, be a guest blogger, or use social media networks to help you land a freelance writing gig. The more exposure you get on a specialized writing skill, the better. Good Luck
