Self-Editing for Professional Freelancers<http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=D… *starts April 16th* Ever wonder what it takes to get ahead in today's super-competitive freelance writing market? Nowadays, editors are more likely to assign top-paying stories to writers who can hand in perfect copy — polished, complete, to spec and on time. But easier said than done, even for seasoned writers. Editors don’t want to clean up your style, fix typos, do all your fact-checking, or hear deadline excuses. If you do journalism for professional editors who use Associated Press style, taking this course will make you a better freelancer because you will make their lives easier. If you are an editor, PR professional or beginning journalist, you will also learn valuable tips you're not likely to pick up on the job. *Discounted tution for members of the SF Public Press.* *2012-2013 Northern California Press List Now Available!* Pick up a press list<http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=PdRNKGFX… and a how-to guide <http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=5Vq44Sem4%2BWCBRBMf4MGOQDk9Rztzf3x>today for everything you need to get your message out with minimal time and money.
