Freelance writing success: “I got published!”

Australian Writers' Centre freelance writing success

When we hear that our students have been published, it absolutely makes our day. And it seems like we've had plenty of reasons to smile lately. So many of our graduates are achieving great things in the world of freelance writing. We like to celebrate by popping champagne, dancing on a table and writing a blog post in their honour.

Libby Hakim‘s story “Big careers in tiny spaces” was recently published in the Sydney Morning Herald as well as The Age.

Linda Moon scored a massive five-page spread for her travel feature on Switzerland in Australian Natural Health magazine.
