Event Overview

You're good with words, you've got a book cooking in your mind, but you can't pursue writing as a profession because you think you won't make any money. But you CAN answer the question "What do you do?" with "I'm a writer."

While you're working on the next great American novel, learn how you can turn your writing skills into income by launching your freelance career. This class is for communications professionals who have skills in writing and have wanted to make it in the world of freelancing and blogging. Learn and ask questions about such topics as building a portfolio, how to pitch clients, how to start and keep a blog, and the business side of working for yourself.
