Getting Started in Journalism

I have worked in academia to date. I am 50 years old. I am interested in writing arts journalism: at the moment I am writing a piece on Zaha Hadid. I have a blog with samples of my writing. I wondered if any of you would please give me some suggestions to get a piece published or my foot in the door. I am too old to do free internships.

I am not looking for a full-time staff job.

Serious question, OP: do you need to make a living from your writing? Is that your goal?

If not, you will have a lot more opportunities to see your work in print.

I will always do my usual job which takes up about half of my time. I expect to write part time.

Should I write send articles I have already written in my blog to editors?
