Welcome to Thursday’s FWN newsletter, with 125+ new pitch calls, freelance & contract writing opportunities!

The full collection of opportunities is for paid subscribers, so make sure you’re on the premium list to access them all!


Join our next FWN masterclass, Monday 1st December at 2pm ET / 7pm GMT — just 10 days away!

This masterclass helps writers, researchers, artists, and creative entrepreneurs learn how to promote their work without that “ugh, I hate self-promotion” feeling. Whether you’re trying to get more eyes on a published piece or build a platform that shows you’re an expert in your niche, Be Your Own Publicist will show you how to do it authentically and effectively.

You’ll leave with a clear understanding of what a publicist actually does and a toolkit of DIY strategies you can use to boost visibility for your writing, projects, or brand.
