There is a yahoo group and it's on facebook also. It is just called Freelancewritingjobs@yahoogroups.com. They list a long list of jobs every so often, but many require you to have special knowledge or skills.
Some you need to live in the area. Go to the library and get "The Writer's Digest" magazine. They list lots of jobs too.
They also publish a yearly guide.
