Freelance Journalism Course

Writing for a living is something which appeals to many people, and the field of freelance journalism - writing for newspapers, magazines and web sites - is particularly attractive.

Successful freelance journalists can write articles on a variety of subjects and earn a very good living in the process.

Even better, the lifestyle of freelance journalism can be as flexible as they want it to be. They can choose their own hours, choose their own ideas and choose which magazines and newspapers they contribute to, based on their personal preferences and special interests.

And should the freelance lifestyle get stale, they have always got the option of becoming an employed "staff writer" for a single title.

The Freelance Journalism Course from The Maple Academy provides a practical and intensive course in four enjoyable study modules.

This course has been created and devised by a successful journalist -- this unique course will teach you all you need to know to get started as a freelance journalist.

In fact, if you follow the assignments provided, you will have submitted your first article for consideration by a national magazine or newspaper by the time you complete Module 03!

The Freelance Journalist Course Overview:

  • Setting yourself up as a freelance journalist
  • How to develop your writing to a professional standard.
  • Finding ideas for articles.
  • How to research a topic.
  • The way to write a great article in 6 easy steps.
  • How to conduct interviews.
  • The best way to build a regular stream of commissions.

  • Why self-promotion is a key to success - and how to do it effectively.

Each module of the course provides a plethora of insider tips, pointers and secrets so that you can avoid making the kind of mistakes most beginners make.

You will also be given plenty of practical assignments which enable you to apply what you learn - right from day one!
