Teaches at Writing Pad

You have so many stories inside of you, and you are burning to tell them. But how do you get from inspiration to publication? In this two-day journalism freelancing workshop, veteran journalist Liana Aghajanian (NY Times) will take you through the paces of the freelance life. You’ll learn how to pitch to editors, keep your pile of ideas fresh, and work with your sources.

Liana will cover the mechanics of being a professional freelancer: how much to charge, time management, where to pitch your ideas, and how to avoid the rookie mistakes. You’ll get to pitch an idea to Liana, find out which publications to target and how to approach them. By the end of the class, you’ll have everything you need to set up a writing practice focused entirely on freelancing writing. It won’t be long before you’re sipping a cup of hot coffee and typing up your next great article for the New York Times. You’ll be well on your way to joining the ranks of the 70+ Writing Pad Alums who have sold essays and articles to publications such as Self, Marie Claire, LA Times, Salon, Spirit Magazine, and New York Magazine with Writing Pad’s help!
