10 pitch calls & 10 writing jobs 💌 💸
Happy Sunday to 8,508 motivated writers 👋🏼
How’s everyone doing? I’m doing great!
Feeling a bit tired today… I had a long 15-hour drive up to Denver, CO from Austin, TX yesterday 😮💨
Looking forward to spending some time off in the slopes at Breckenridge this week (but don’t worry TWJN Pro subs will still get a midweek opps update on Wednesday 😉).
Would love to hear any Denver recs from those who live here or have visited! Restaurants, coffee shops, cool local shops… you get the gist 🤓
I’m running a little late today, so let’s get straight to it!! 👇
