If you’re trying to break into freelance writing, you can’t get anywhere without a strong pitch. A well-crafted story pitch is your chance to prove that you’re the person for the job. This guidebook will help you land your first dream assignment and kick off your career as a freelance writer so that you can make money doing what you love.
In it, an established freelance-journalist-turned-editor shares the hard-won advice that helped her go from making $20,000 a year to six figures in media. You'll learn:
- Smart approaches to grab an editor's eye from an actual editor
- How to negotiate higher rates on your assignments 80% of the time
- Advice to help you navigate confusing contracts
- The most common pitch mistakes freelance writers make, and how to avoid them
It can be hard to launch a journalism career, but an irresistible pitch is the first and most important step.

In this WMG Writer's Guide, international best-selling author Kristine Kathryn Rusch discusses the destructive ways peer workshops and the quest for perfection derail many writers' careers. Listening to critics and academics - amateur and professional - often strips out the joy of writing. And a failure to recognize writing as a business furthers the potential damage. But Rusch offers hope for writers who have suffered at the hands of critique - external and internal - and outlines a path to healing.
