It was another successful year at the Nackey Loeb School of Communications for me. On April 9, I was joined by 21 writers looking to break into freelance writing. I tried not to be too much of a downer when I told them how hard it is. Hopefully they walked away with something helpful that will get them to the next step.

Below is my PowerPoint presentation. I told them I only use PowerPoint once a year for this class, so please bear with with cheesy swipes and bad layout.

I’d also like to thank Rick Broussard from New Hampshire Magazine and Nancy West from InDepthNH who sat on my panel of editors and gave great advice. Of course thanks always goes out to Dave Tirrell-Wysocki, one of the best newsmen I know, who helped facilitate the whole thing.
