Legal matters regarding work

I currently reside in the US and I would like to know your opinions ideas on a matter.


I am planning to start to write some articles for newspapers and perhaps a book.

My question is that do I need a visa that allows me to work?

Logically I would think since you can write a book where ever you are in the world and get it published here in the US you won't need a work permit.

I have asked someone at our international student office and she said that I can't get paid in the US. This got me thinking about a number of questions.

Can I open an account in another country and get paid there?

Or can I just ask for the money to be paid into someones account that has a legal work permit like my husband?

So what do you guys think? Any opinions or suggestions?
