Hey, writers!
Today I’m sharing another 50+ new paid writing opportunities, spanning pitch calls, journalism, copy, content, editing, strategy, and more.
You’ll notice there are a few full-time roles in this edition, largely in the journalism & editing space. I appreciate that in the current climate, writers are looking for a range of work… not just freelance! We want to support all of you here at the FWN, and so we’ve widened our searches to bring you even more opportunities.
And as always this Tuesday: right now is the best time to browse the list in full, pick the opps that match your skill set, and spend some time thoroughly refining the pitches and applications you send out.
We’ll see you again soon with details of our next live session (keep Monday at 12pm PST free!).
