This is the story of a piece that almost wasn’t meant to be. And, if you’re into interior design, you’ll especially want to give this episode a listen. Our guest shares how a trending topic, unlikely pitch, and serendipitous encounter with a stranger all culminated into a nice, long feature with beautiful imagery for the Wall Street Journal. Gain insider tips for pitching a national lifestyle freelance writer, and so much more.
In this episode, you’ll learn…
–How a big feature (with original imagery!) is put together for a top tier outlet
–Why social trends matter to journalists and editors (hello again, TikTok!)
–What additional info helps a freelance writer make an informed decision (transparency is always key!)
