How to Generate Original Story Ideas

Coming up with strong, original story ideas is at the heart of successful freelancing. This session explores practical ways to generate ideas from everyday sources, including conversations, social media, press releases, notice boards, and your regular news consumption. 

In this session we will cover: 

• How to spot stories others overlook
• How to turn small observations into compelling pitches
• How to develop a habit of idea generation that fits around busy lives

The focus is on building confidence in your instincts and creating a sustainable system for finding fresh angles, rather than waiting for inspiration to strike.
