Where do you get your local Canadian news? Is there an independent news source you trust? I'm looking for #recommendations of anything hyper-local that isn't owned by Rogers/Post-Media/Bell. It can be from any province/territory. #Canada #canadiannews

This was a really helpful breakdown of what kind of content you can provide as a freelance photographer to get more work. Could be applied to other freelancers too.

The ice sculptures at the Snowcastle in Yellowknife NWT are incredible. Even the ground around it is carved. Teams from across Canada and even Spain, Estonia, etc did such an amazing job!

This will be a loss to the community. Opportunities like this in general assume that you have the ability to act and react quickly and then speed off, but so many people work more slowly to get to a point where they're ready. Longer term support and encouragement is needed.

What a fascinating read. As I get closer to 50 I'm starting to see the hallmarks of aging and frequently question if I'm doing it right. From the article: "It is absurd to say that I feel I am not yet grown up. I am not laying claim to perpetual youth (though 89 is something of a surprise)..."

What an incredible two days of the #theiij 2026 Freelance journalism conference. Unlike last year when I was still finishing up school, I feel much more prepared to put these tips into action. Still overwhelming, but I'm in awe of the generosity of the speakers and attendees.

Write from a place of curiosity and authenticity. You can be like Alice in Wonderland. Wise words for journalists by @taylorcrumpton.bsky.social at #theiij @indiejournalists.bsky.social

Interesting tip from Lale Arikoglu editor of @cntraveler.com.web.brid.gy about pitching: don't necessarily come in with your biggest idea, but instead what's most realistic for you to deliver and for the editor to get to know you. Via Lifestyle Freelancing #theiij @indiejournalists.bsky.social

Last session from @indiejournalists.bsky.social at this year's #theiij freelance journalism conference is on being a lifestyle writer and how to make a living. Love getting a chance to hear from food, travel and music writers who are rooted in a deeper context of community, history and politics.

Great advice by @michellecyca.com from today's #theiij session on reporting with care: "Don't pitch a story if you don't know you can report it" The session wasn't focused on pitching but I'm still learning the balance between being excited about a story and feeling like I'm bothering a subject

So many valuable things in this last #theiij session on reporting with care: - informed consent for the sources! - emotional labour explaining why things can be hurtful - it's not just about pushing a story but bringing to light - there's a community of people who share the same struggles

I'm so excited about this #theiij session on reporting with care by @michellecyca.com from @thenarwhal.ca, Dr Luisa Ortiz Perez and Lewis Raven Wallace. Touching on both caring for reporters and interviewees, as well as the intersection of journalism and activism.

Any excuse for charcuterie #breaktime #theiij #2026iij Freelance Journalism Conference

Great tips for pitching from editors at #theiij - don't be too general and just give a broad topic, instead specify your angle and say how your reporting will push the discourse forward. Then you can connect your narrow story to the broader scope and societal context.

I'm so grateful to the @indiejournalists.bsky.social for bringing in such an incredibly diverse group of speakers, including fellow Canadian Samia Madwar from @thewalrus.ca The editors at this session say you probably won't get it right the first time, but you should pitch anyway #theiij

The advice to keep trying and apply more than once is applicable everywhere. Sometimes you'll want to pitch something brand new, but sometimes reworking the idea can work. From the Fellowships and grants session at the @indiejournalists.bsky.social 2026 Freelance Journalism Conference #theiij

Second session on fellowships and grants has some good tips about applying. More fellowships are taking on freelance journalists. Also, look at who started the foundation or fellowship, because you can tailor your application to those goals #theiij @indiejournalists.bsky.social

Good advice for choosing a newsletter platform in today's session on creator journalism: Don't tie your identity to a particular platform. Keep the power in your own hands and focus on consistency and good work. (But also, don't just default to substack) @indiejournalists.bsky.social #theiij
