Just wanted to let you know that I have a new series of articles coming up at the Journalism.co.uk site, about how to be a successful freelancer. The first one has just gone up here, and looks at the best way to pitch your ideas to editors. This is a version of a previous post on this blog, now with added modernity including using Twitter to pitch. The original vintage, longer and more detailed post is here.
