✍️ TWJN Pro 101 | 45 WRITING GIGS

Happy Friday to TWJN supporters 👋

Hello writers! How’s everyone doing today?

Happy New Year freelancers & writers!

Are the holidays really over already? I guess it’s time to get back to the grind and what better way to start off 2025 than with 45 writing opportunities from National Geographic, Salon, Lonely Planet, Vox, People, IGN and many more.

For premium TWJN subscribers, I’ve also tacked on a few more places that want your pitches — publications that pay $0.50/word and up! Pitch calls and job postings will probably start picking up next week as editors and hiring managers get settled back into their work groove.

Sorry for the odd schedule of newsletter sends recently! We shall return to regular Sunday & Wednesday issues after this 💌
