So You Want To Be A Freelance Writer: Business Basics All Writers Need March 22
FREE! So you want to be a freelance writer? Great! But it takes more than perfect prose to make it in this tumultuous industry. I should know! I've been crafting travel and human interest narratives for over ten years (and paying my bills with the proceeds!)
In this workshop, I'll be sharing all the business basics I wish someone had told me over the years, things like what marketing means when you're a one-person show, simple and effective tools for invoicing and taxes, resources for pitching, and much more. I'll also be sharing real examples from my career: pitches I've used successfully, lessons I learned the hard way, and the newsletters I read every week without fail. I'll also be sending you a long list of resources, tool, and books before the workshop so you have all the resources you need close at hand.
All writers, from all genres, are welcome. Please bring a friend!

- Adjust Your 2024 Goals with Actionable Steps: Sometimes you have to tweak your plans and goals. Now's the time to do it! There’s still A LOT of time to make things happen and we’ll work together to break down how it will happen.
- Recharge Your Creativity: Forget AI and X (or whatever Twitter is calling itself these days). Let’s look at brainstorming story ideas, developing creative projects, and selling our artistic services without compromising our integrity and ideals.
By the end of the day, you’ll feel AMAZING because:
- You’ll Realize You're Not Alone: You will discover that you are part of a community of like-minded individuals who share similar challenges, dreams, and victories.
- You’ll Savor Your Accomplishments: You will gain a renewed appreciation for your achievements over the past year and recognize that you are in a stronger position than you realized to keep 2024 going on a positive, productive, and profitable note.
- You’ll Work ON Your Business (and not just IN it): You’ll feel wonderful after investing time and effort into strategic planning for your writing business, instead of just immersing yourself in day-to-day operations.
