In the podcast this week we quiz two commissioning editors about what they want to see from freelance journalists. Rebecca Liu, commissioning editor at the Guardian, and Mun-Keat Looi international features editor at the British Medical Journal, discuss the winning formula for pitches plus how to make yourself indispensable as a freelancer. They also chat about pet hates, negotiating rates and top tips for regular commissions. Guestshttps://www.theguardian.com/profile/rebecca-liuhttps://twitter.com/becbecliuliuhttps://munkeatlooi.com/https://twitter.com/munkeatlooiResourcesPitching guide https://payhip.com/b/dcliH'What commissioning editors want' previous podcast episode https://freelancing-for-journalists.captivate.fm/episode/what-commissioning-editors-wantRecommendationsMy boyfriend lives with my husband https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2023/sep/22/experience-my-boyfriend-lives-with-my-husbandWhy health experts are fighting to end daylight saving time https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36958725/
