If you’re new to writing and trying to get more clips, start your own blog! Editors want to see your wordsmith abilities, your idea generation skills and your consistency. If you want to write travel, start a travel blog. If you’re into beauty, write about makeup and skincare. Wherever you want to target your career, make an effort to write at least 2-3 blogs a week and share them online. That way when you pitch, you have samples of work to illustrate your writing.
