Happy Tuesday to all you writers & creatives 👋
How is it already mid September? The cold is slowly creeping in, and stores have pinned their Christmas shopping adverts around town — a bit prematurely, I might add. Another year has come and nearly gone. Cue my imminent midlife crisis.
But never mind that! Back to the writing gigs… There’s tons of amazing writing opportunities in this week’s newsletter from a fellowship at ProPublica, copywriting for Urban Outfitters, leading the social media Betches, overseeing copyediting operations at Lonely Planet, writing for Grazia UK and plenty more.
