Airbnb, Nat Geo, CN Traveller, MoneyWeek ✨📝 📬
Happy Tuesday to all you writers & creatives 👋
Wow, I can’t believe it’s been 5 years since I started The Writer’s Job Newsletter! In celebration of this milestone (and the new year!), I just wanted to send out a special thank you to all of you lovely subscribers. We’re kicking off 2026 with an exclusive 25% off discount 🥳
Start the new year off right by gifting yourself (or a friend 🤝) access to 80+ opportunities per week — sent straight to your inbox. Don’t waste your time endlessly scrolling the internet for pitch calls, writing opportunities, and job postings. Upgrade to TWJN Pro to save hours of your time (and a lot of your sanity), so you can focus on making money by actually writing.
I spend hours every week screening, vetting, and curating these pitch calls and writing gigs, so you don’t have to! On top of that, I try to ensure all opportunities that I share have transparent pay information, whenever possible. In addition to the biweekly newsletters, you’ll also receive access to our exclusive Pitch Call Database with over 1,400 writing opportunities (and counting!). On the hunt for even more places to look for work? I got you! Premium subscribers have full access to check out all of our previous editions in the archives.
Now, let’s jump into the opps! This (extended) issue has over 40 pitch calls, writing opportunities, and media jobs from Airbnb, National Geographic, Investopedia, Food & Wine, AFAR, Condé Nast Traveller, WIRED, The Motley Fool, MoneyWeek, EatingWell and so many more. There are 10 extra opportunities for free subscribers today. Enjoy! If an opportunity or two catches your eye here, upgrade to a premium subscription for 25% off to access today’s full list with 32 more writing gigs.
If you missed the last newsletter with over 50 writing opportunities from New Scientist, GamesRadar+, BBC, Business Insider, Mongabay, Sentient, Democracy Docket and tons more, check it out here.
Start 2026 with a new, auto-updating portfolio
A new year is the perfect time for a fresh start. Authory helps you hit the ground running with a portfolio that updates itself every time you publish an article, no matter where.
No more tedious updates or worrying about losing your work due to site shutdowns.
Show off your writing with confidence, knowing everything is backed up and ready to share.
Make 2026 the year you automate your workflow, and shine as a writer.
You are currently a free subscriber and will only receive a preview of our opportunities lists in each issue. TWJN Pro subscribers get complete access to newsletters with nearly 10x as many opps, along with exclusive access to our Pitch Call Database.
