Happy Monday to all you writers & creatives 👋
How is everyone today?
Sorry for the late send this week. We had a few hiccups during our move and are now hunkering down for the winter storm in Texas. Because this issue was delayed by a day, we’ll be running the midweek issue on Thursday — just for this week.
Today, we have 45 writing opportunities from Rest of World, Financial Times, Insider, Tasty, Lonely Planet, Beehiiv and so many more. Some pretty cool pitch calls and writing/editing roles in today’s list 🌟
Premium subscribers! New year, new pitches! If you’re looking for even more places to pitch this year, check out issues here, here, and here where I’ve shared about 25 bonus guides for some publications that are always open to pitches (and pay fair rates!)
New here? Howdy! Follow us on Twitter, LinkedIn, and Bluesky to see opportunities shared throughout the week 🔔
