"I got published!": Scott Williamson

We love hearing from our students no matter what they have to say, but when we hear of a student being published, we just want to shout it from the rooftops! We’re a little scared of heights, so we’ll go with a blog post instead.

Scott says:

On a high from completing the online AWC Magazine and Newspaper Writing course and Travel Writing course, I pitched a few articles to different magazines. It must have been a slow day for the Editor of Playtimes, a Hong Kong parenting magazine, because she wanted my story!

The end result was published today in the March edition of Playtimes!

I can't say enough about the Australian Writers Centre courses, especially the online ones as I live in Hong Kong!

Julietta and Valerie are the experts in freelance travel and feature writing and were extremely generous in sharing their knowledge and experience. If you have ever thought about freelance writing, this is the place for you!

Highly recommended.

Congratulations Scott! Wanna read what he wrote? Read the article here!
