It’s all very well being able to write, but how do you convince editors you have the talent, ideas and diligence to provide fresh, original copy to deadline? There are plenty of books covering the basics of grammar, constructing articles and plotting short stories, but a new book by Linda Jones gets straight to the nitty-gritty of freelance writing as a business.

Former Editor and Experienced Journalist

Jones doesn’t plump for buttery sweet-talk about how easy it is to become a successful writer. “Anyone who goes into freelancing thinking the streets are paved with gold needs to get a grip,” she cautions in her introduction. But with tenacity, determination and a good grasp of the basics, Jones believes a good writer can thrive.

As a former editor with nearly twenty years of journalistic experience behind her, including an established blog offering further freelance writing tips, Jones relates the advice and observations she believes will get you on your way to making a decent living.
