She having writer's block? Let her figure out the escape/ascension herself 😛

So basically hinting at publishing online articles/ working for such companies (which require such editors, bloggers)?

She can start her own blog, or work on someone else's blog (either as a full-time job or as a freelancer). Or, she can work as a marketing writer, which is a high-paying job since marketing is really competitive. If she wants to try something big and creative (since she wrote 4 books, I assume that her writing style is creative), she can try her luck as a script writer for movies or shows, which would be the best thing if she manages to make it to the top.

If she is willing to work as a content writer do DM me. But this is not a remote opportunity, need to be physically present in office.

If she is a good orator, ask her to explore voice-over/dubbing for audio stories / podcasts.

If she is a writer who has published 4 books, I am assuming she must be a professional writer and her books must have some utility attached to them. If I was in her place, here are some of the things, I may think of doing: 

1. Learn FB ads and promote my books to a relevant audience (this has a learning curve but can be very profitable esp if the books she has written are on some really useful/in-demand subjects) 

2. Whatever the topics that she has written those books on, she could have an online blog about the same (she can take this one step further by cross-selling her books) Also now there are Google Web Stories too which is one more additional way bloggers can boost their earnings

3. If she has written 4 books, then it's likely that she must be eloquent with the English language (assuming those books are in the same) if this is the case, then she may even consider taking up online gigs for proofreading/writing academic papers (there are some sites (outside India) who look for such writers)  

4. As suggested by other helpful dimers, she may consider picking up content writing professionally as her job (Technical writers in IT companies, Editors from publication groups, marketing content writers or copywriters etc can be viable fields if there's interest) 

Also, the suggestion of becoming a Script Writer by my dimer-friend, Sahil Jain sounds great too. 

I hope she finds the best path for her:) and thanks @quantum for the tag. This thread is a pleasure to read and contribute to.
