Episode 35: Get Freelance Work When You Don't Have Clips




A Little Bird Told Me Freelance Writing Podcast show

Summary: Many people who want to start out as freelance writers fear that they will never get any work because they don't have any published writing to show to potential editors or clients. They feel stuck in a vicious circle where they can't get work published because they don't have experience, but they can't get experience because they don't have any published work. In fact, this does not have to be as much of a barrier as you might think, and in this episode Philippa looks at how journalists, feature writers, ghost writers, fiction writers and commercial copywriters can all get some all-important clips to create a portfolio to wow their clients of the future.
