New writing opps to help land your next byline or contract this Thursday!
Welcome to the first Thursday newsletter edition of the new & evolved Freelance Writing Network!

Another publication wants to expand their pool of writers who cover arts, culture & trends, and they want your pitches, plus pay as much as $500.
