Getting a writing job means projects, projects, projects

Iain talks about what it takes to get a writing job. Basically, professional experience and good qualifications are fine, but it’s what you do outside of those things that will catch an employer’s eye. Why are you different to all the other candidates? What do you do simply because you choose to do it? What have you created that no one else has? These are the things that will make a difference and get you noticed.
