We're commissioning a new series for Talking Travel Writing all about how freelancers got their gigs. These pieces aim to demystify the process of ideation, pitching, travelling and writing, and offer insight to fellow freelancers about how others make this business work.
We have a set Q&A template you will follow for this piece, which includes questions such as:
- Where did the idea come from?
- How did you pitch it?
- How many editors did you pitch?
- How did you set up the trip?
- How did you do the research?
- What was the editing process like?
- What did you get paid?
- Did you get any other commissions from same trip?
- Was it worth the money?
Please offer some brief details below so we can commission a variety of pieces for our March series. We will only be commissioning four articles, so please only submit this form for one story. We will be in touch if your pitch is successful.
We will pay £100 on submission for the finished article once commissioned.
