At this Edit event in August 2018, our guest panel dove into the nitty-gritty of freelancing: how to get your foot in the door, what drives editors crazy and how to build a solid reputation as a freelancer. With special thanks to:

Jo Chandler, award-winning freelance journalist focusing on Pacific and environmental reporting
Erik Jensen, editor-in-chief of The Saturday Paper, journalist and author of Acute Misfortune: The Life and Death of Adam Cullen
Denham Sadler, freelance journalist and former editor at Private Media

Also, a very warm welcome to our new moderator, Age journalist Rachael Dexter.
