So you’re a writer. How do you sustain your writing practice and make a living? Some writers teach, run workshops or hold down a job. Others speak, edit, and write copy, articles or corporate content. Design your writing life with the tools to plan, work smarter, keep the books, maximise tax deductions and run your micro-business. It’s like dancing – getting the rhythm, sharpening coordination, mastering new steps and being nimble.

You will learn

  • the five essential elements of running a freelance business:
    • know what you offer and how to get the word out
    • manage your resources of time, energy, cash and information
    • understand what you need to charge for living expenses
    • plan ongoing professional development
    • most importantly, do good work!

This workshop develops employment-related skills.
