Freelance Writing-any tips?
I have an article published in a major area newspaper this Sunday. I am very excited! Any tips on how to keep going with this? Just keep submitting? ANY TIPS would help!
Re: Freelance Writing-any tips?
Well, how did you get published in the paper in the first place? That's a definite avenue to follow (ie: hit up the editor to get more assignments).
If your area has local community magazines - contact the editor to see how you can get on their freelance list. Check to see if you have a Patch Community (online - http://www.patch.com/) in your area. Reach out to them to find out how to become a contributing writer.
Network! I'm not sure if you work in a related field right now but, if you, word of mouth is a wonderful thing.
The other avenue I use is CraigsList - that's actually how I found out that my local Patch was hiring writers.
Good luck!
My three sons!
