Oh, a few other things …

• Missed a panel? We’re building an archive of our Zoom panel playbacks over on Patreon! So far we’ve got Covering culture during a pandemic, How to write better personal essays, How to write better pitches and the Business of freelancing, with playbacks coming soon on getting into cultural criticism, writing a book, travel writing during a pandemic, how to write better service journalism and so much more. Subscribers at the $10 level get full access plus early access to panel registration, Patreon-exclusive posts and even more. Subscribe here!

(Curious why we launched a Patreon? Here’s an F.A.Q.!)

• Speaking of Patreon! We have a small handful of sponsored spots available for early-career and student journalists who are unable to subscribe on their own. Interested in a spot? Email us at freelancingwithtim@gmail.com and put “Sponsoree” in the subject line. They’ll be issued out on a first come, first served basis.

• ICYMI: We recently did a Q&A with freelance badass Taylor Crumpton. It’s full of great advice about finding work via Twitter, negotiating rates and ~prayer-based commissions~

• Follow FWT on Instagram here! There’s gonna be sooooo much great video stuff there very soon! (From Nicole: come for the events, stay for grumpy screenshots of Tim’s cat Strudel from our Zoom panels!)

• As always, send questions, comments, thoughts, cute pet photos or anything else to freelancingwithtim@gmail.com, and follow me on Twitter for updates throughout the week.

Okay bye ily!
