San Diego Press Club Powerhouse Panel
The San Diego Press Club will host a virtual panel discussion on the tools and resources available to independent journalists. The “Powerhouse Panel: Going Independent” event is part of the ongoing Press Club “Nuts and Bolts” professional development series and is designed to present learning opportunities based on industry trends. The panel event will feature freelance journalists Jackie Bryant, Jodi Ettenberg and Mike Sowden who will share how they are complementing their publishing careers with, among other things, email newsletters. They will provide tips on building a paid following with new and emerging tools available online, including Substack, Patreon and other newsletters, all of which have allowed them the freedom to take the assignments and follow the stories they want.
