A Bunch of Paid Writing Opportunities, Week #88
Plus what to do when you don't have anything to do
Hi & happy Monday!
Since work is slowing down for many freelance writers this time of year, I want to share some things I do when I don’t have much work (and why).
Rest! It’s important, it’s underrated, and often hard to come by. I love watching shows on streaming, sleeping in, reading in a bubble bath, and just “wasting” time, TBH.
Write on Medium! It allows for passive income in the future. I don’t always have time for it otherwise. I want to keep my profile going there even though I’m focusing more on other sites now.
Send pitches! How else will you get work, ya know?
Catch up on emails! There will always be some that need answering, amirite?
Get ahead on future assignments! Maybe I don’t have the expert input to add yet, but I can write the intro, find some internal links to add, etc. My future self always thanks me!
Now, onto the writing jobs and pitch calls for paid subscribers!
(Free subscribers: Want to see that content or make sure it’s worth it before purchasing? Here’s an old example of what you’ll get each week. On average, I include about 20-30 paid opps including a variety of beats, years of experience, types of writing, etc.)
