@gamecounsel @bethanyusher I think they are! This is why only 14% of my income is from freelance articles and the rest is newsroom shifts, moderating live events, ghostwriting etc. I would love to just write articles all the time but it’s not financially viable unless you’re on staff or on a retainer…

Once again, I was saying the rate that the Independent paid me was a bad rate. I was not comparing it to an indie magazine. The £65 rate is just another bad rate! And today is just another bad day to be a freelance writer! Or an editor at a publication without sufficient funding!

I feel like it’s a bit irresponsible to shame an independent reader-run mag for not paying as much as the Indy or something tbh and the lack of context has contributed to a bit of a pile-on

Tomorrow I was meant to be interviewing as a finalist for a funding opportunity that would have allowed me to do a journalism placement in Moscow. Its amazing how a dream I could nearly touch 2 weeks ago seems totally ridiculous and unfathomable now

Any staff @SOAS who received £0 paychecks in May want to speak to me today about what university management is doing (or not) to solve the problem? You can remain anonymous. Would be a story for the diary page of the Evening Standard. DMs open. #journorequest

UCU members at @SOAS have today opened their payslips to find 100% pay deductions. This is utterly appalling behaviour from university management. They have attacked staff and dragged their reputation through the mud instead of calling on @UCEA1 to re-negotiate. #NoDeductions

Honestly if I could just get a bit more famous at this journalism stuff that would be great because I want them to ask me to go on Strictly whilst i’m still in my prime
