Award-winning journalist and media consultant Brad Kuhn will present, “So You Want to Be A Freelancer,” at the FWA Ponte Vedra Writers meeting on Saturday, Aug. 25 at 10:30 a.m. at the Ponte Vedra Beach Branch Library.
Kuhn said he will teach writers “how to fish where the fish are biting.” Among the things attendees will learn are:
· The power of goals
· Who’s hiring
· What to charge
