Happy Wednesday to all you writers & creatives 👋
This issue has 42 pitch calls, writing gigs, and media jobs from Travel + Leisure, Slate, Wirecutter, Inverse, Tom’s Guide, DICK’S Sporting Goods, The New Yorker, Narratively, The Latino Newsletter and tons more. Keep in mind that as we approach the end of the year, hiring for full-time positions may be winding down, with companies approaching their annual budget caps. This edition still has some remote full-time roles, a few good pitch calls, and a bunch of copywriting gigs, content writing roles, and editorial internships/fellowships.
