Nittany Valley Writers Network: Tips for Starting a Freelance Writing Career

Walk away from that copy of Writer's Market. Sue Marquette Poremba will discuss what it takes to make freelance writing a sustainable career and will include things like reaching out to editors, getting assignments, the importance of networking and marketing, and the changing scope of publishing opportunities. Sue started freelancing in 2001 while still working full time at Penn State and made the jump to full-time freelancing in 2005. Her articles have appeared in local and national print magazines, web publications, and blogs. Tuesday, September 13, 7-8:30 p.m. in the Community Room.
