First step into going back to freelance journalism
Well I am taking a bold step back into the freelancing journalism world with a query letter sent out to a business market.
The article is on an interesting startup investment venture by the outgoing head of the hedge fund arm for the investment firm that I work for.
What he is doing, is going to be setting up a hedge fund, where 100% of the profits generated by the fund will be funneled into a charitable foundation, which would then use the fund to help various causes.
They have a website, well a blog actually, hopefully I will link it here, but I'm not comfortable with linking to the blog or official corporate website until they are up and running.
In any event, hopefully this publication will see this audacious venture as something that should appear in their publication!
Well the article is actually written, which is considered a “no-no” in the world of freelance journalism, but it was for a course that I am taking. It has been quite a while since I’ve done something like this, probably not since 2001. Lets hope this works.
