  1. Number 1: 05: Pitching mindset

    The first thing most freelance writers need to do to improve their pitching isn't some editorial magic trick. It's not tips on including a news hook, or how to write a great subject line, or having the right clips in your portfolio. For most of us, the first thing to do to improve your pitching is to change how you're thinking about the pitching process itself. Maybe you didn't even know you had a pitching mindset. Today I'm going to offer some unconventional ways of approaching pitching and perspectives that you haven't considered before.

  2. Number 2: 04: The perfect black T-shirt

    Tailoring your pitch to an individual publication will be a game changer if you're used to a spray-and-pray approach. Simultaneous submissions may seem efficient in the short-term, but there's a reason why most editors don't respond to the same pitch you sent to their competition.

  3. Number 3: 03: Travel writing: Pitching stories before or after the trip

    This episode addresses two of the most requested topics my readers told me they wanted to hear about: travel writing and pitching. Should you pitch your travel story ideas before or after you have a notebook full of notes? In theory, you can do it successfully either way. You could do a little research and prereporting, pitch, get an assignment, schedule your interviews and be confident out in the field knowing who you're writing for and what your angle is. Or you could set off on the trip, be open to what's around you, reflect on it, and pitch when you get home and then get your assignment. And let's face it. You could also pitch and face silence or rejection either before the trip or after the trip. If you knew it was going to work out either way, which would you prefer?
