Happy Wednesday to TWJN supporters 👋 

Hello writers! How’s everyone doing today?

It’s been another busy week on the road for me! This time for a work conference in Vegas 🎰

I’ll be heading out to Zion & the Grand Canyon afterwards for a mini honeymoon!! Super last minute, but super excited to be out in nature for a few days with my wife (still getting used to that!) Anyways, I will try to get the newsletter out on Sunday and Wednesday, but it will likely be a mini version of the normal issues. So just a heads up!

For you new freelancers out there, I found this useful article by Angel Martinez outlining her “guide to freelancing.” There’s some good points and worth the read IMO!

Now let’s get to the opps! Got a bit of something for everybody in today’s issue 👇

If you missed the last newsletter, check it out here.

Get paid $1,500 to tell a two-page story?

Did you know… There’s a little-known way to get paid amazingly well to tell a unique kind of story? It’s only 2 pages at most. Thousands of companies are paying writers $1,500 on average to write it for them.

It’s all detailed in a short guide you can download immediately.
