Welcome to Monday’s FWN newsletter, a fresh roundup of 85+ new pitch calls, freelance & contract writing opportunities!

January is delivering in a big way so far, and we’re seeing tons of quality opportunities rolling in. This is a fantastic sign for the year ahead.

Let’s make this the year you land those dream bylines and build the freelance career you’ve been working toward.


Want to earn up to $1,000?

I’m looking to connect with more brands and businesses in 2026 who’d be a good fit for the Freelance Writing Network, in a way that brings more value to you (don’t worry, a Skims partnership isn’t on the horizon!).

If you know a brand or individual who might be interested in partnering and you put us in touch, I’m offering 10% of the partnership fee as a referral bonus (up to $1,000).

Just connect us directly or have them mention your name when they reach out. Emails can be sent to sponsorships@thefreelancewritingnetwork.com.

Thanks!
