How can this newsletter support you?
The free version:
On the 1st of each month, you’ll receive a newsletter with:
Writing tips
Writing resources
Pitch calls
Writing jobs
Encouragement
And more!
Every Monday, you’ll get:
The free blurb of the paid newsletter! It usually has writing tips/resources or a few jobs/pitch calls.
The paid version:
Everything mentioned above
The rest of the paid version of the weekly newsletter! It usually has 20-30 paid writing opportunities.
Entry to a Slack community where you can share your wins, ask questions, get info on the best writing resources, and more!
Why else should you subscribe?
Because you love to write.
Because you want to make money as a writer (as a newbie or veteran!).
Because being a freelance writer is your dream (or just an idea you’re considering).
Because, let’s be honest, it’s okay to say “I can always unsubscribe if I want to!”
Because you want to simplify and streamline your writing process (hello, more money!).
Is the paid version worth it?
I’m biased, of course, but I say yes. Let me tell you why.
Testimonials
“Ashley Broadwater is one of the most accessible, resourceful, helpful people I’ve met online.” —Aimee Brown Gramblin, Medium writer [source]
“Yours is one of three newsletters I always recommend to new freelance writers.” —Mikhal Weiner, writer of Chaos Palace newsletter [source]
The writing opportunities
One of the main things you’ll get as a paid subscriber is those 20-30ish paid writing opportunities (jobs and pitch calls) per week. And sure, you could find those on your own.
But it can be a hassle. And it’s hard to find them all. And the more work you have to do on your own time, the less time you have to make (more) money writing.
The Slack group
I also include entry to a Slack group for paid subscribers, where you can learn from (and support!) other writers. Let’s ask questions and get advice! Let’s encourage each other! I’ve heard these kinds of resources are invaluable, and I’ve found that to be true myself, too.
Other reasons
Because I put a lot of time, effort, thought, and care into each of my newsletters, and I appreciate your appreciation!
Because you want to support a fellow writer / value paying people for their work / know the struggle of making money as a freelancer!
Because you appreciate the newsletter!
Because along with that extra material, you want to help me pay for graduate school, rent, and more!
