| | Rules Violation for Newswire Press Releases (2nd Jan 23 at 7:33am UTC) |   | You've written a great piece of writing, and now it's time to get it out in the world. But there are some things you need to know before you launch into your career as a freelance writer. Here are some rules that every entrepreneur should follow when starting out on their own:
Taking a break from your writing to put it in perspective is a good thing.
It will help you to get more ideas for your work, and it can also give you a fresh perspective on what works and what doesn't.
A break can make the difference between writing the best press release service that sounds like crap and writing something great!
Unpaid writing gigs are great opportunities for building your portfolio and honing your craft.
You can learn what works and doesn't work by writing for free, but even if you don’t get paid, it can be a good experience that will help shape the direction of your future career.
Writing on spec is a waste of time and energy.
There are many reasons why you should avoid writing on spec, but the most important one is that it's not worth your time. If you're going to spend an hour or two reading through our site, we hope it will be because you're excited about what we have to offer—not because we gave away information that was freely available 24-7 press release!
You should write what you want to write, not what you think will sell.
To write something that you enjoy and that will help your career, it is important to be true to yourself and your interests.
Writing what you want to write is more fun than writing something that someone else tells you they like or think people should read. If a book has been written specifically for the purpose of selling copies, then there are no surprises in store when reading it—and this can ruin an entire reading experience! This can also make it harder for readers' expectations (and possibly their wallets) when they don't get exactly what they expected from a piece of writing.
Magazine editors, especially, love unsolicited submissions and will read them all.
You don't have to wait for them to call; you can send your work directly to magazines that are looking for news release writers like you.
You can find out about this by looking online or in the back of magazines. If it's not stated in an editor's notes at the bottom of an issue, then they haven't read it yet!
