This morning we’re dropping 60 new opportunities spanning pitch calls, freelance briefs, and contract writing roles, and Monday is the best day to act on them.

If you’re reading this before your second tea or coffee (I’m already on my third) then you’re already ahead.

That’s not a figure of speech. Most writers won’t open their inbox until mid-morning. Some won’t check their pitching list until Tuesday. You’re here now, so why not use it?

And ICYMI: Last week we also published a dedicated list of 50 publications actively paying for personal essays, with tons of great opportunities waiting for you. Most of these are evergreen, so they’re accepting pitches year round.
