@CaitlinKellyNYC Listen everyone. You're fighting a losing battle. Just write for money and creative enjoyment and forget about making a living. I'm a part-time massage therapist, cleaner, ad-hoc remote worker and paid focus group participant. I was suicidal. Don't be.

Good for freelancers to ignore the “6 figure” gang. Onward.

@SpectatorOz @senatorbabet Wtf?

The spell of the elite has been broken | @senatorbabet ------ A vote for Trump was a total repudiation of elitism. People are sick of being bullied by a self-appointed, self-righteous few who impose their luxury beliefs on the middle class while they themselves are protected from the consequences by their great wealth. Americans wanted America back. And praise God, they got it! spectator.com.au/2024/11/the-sp…

@PPact You're gunna have some busy old drs in Colorado coz I think it's about one of the few places where you can. Why rest of US in 1960's?

BREAKING: Not only is abortion still fully legal in Colorado, but the right to an abortion was just voted into the state constitution. That’s not all — abortion care can now be covered by state health insurance, expanding access for Coloradans! Huge victory for repro freedom!🏔

@MizTeeFranklin @kaitarford yesmagazine.org/about

It’s been very hard financially for me lately. Please share this post as a customer might be on your feed. Help this Black, queer, disabled author pay their rent and meds. Thank you. TeeFranklin.com/store

@MizTeeFranklin @kaitarford Honestly freelance journalism is awful lately. What about NPQ magazine? They might publish this very topic as an intersectional article. nonprofitquarterly.org/submissions/

If a magazine you're writing for doesn't respond for two weeks and no payment would you be worried you've been ripped off? Starting to think so

@zimranjacob @kaitarford Oh yes I'm interested. I'm struggling to get more than 1 piece probably per fortnight, sometimes a month.

WRITERS OF TWITTER: I have compressed all of the topics I used to teach at UCLA into a PDF. It includes how I got into multiple writers' rooms, how I pitch, and how I got multiple literary reps. If you are interested in this document, please reply here or DM me!

@NoLuckLopez Would love to contribute. I'm Australian. Have writing experience about politics affecting Australians. I can't DM you and I don't have any contact details.

You're still welcome to send pitches to me — email preferred, DM me if you don't have it — although for the next little while, I'll be focusing a bit more on non-Australian content while helping to show Zac the ropes. xoxo ✊😎🚩

Heya mates — a nice bit of @JacobinAust news. With support from the good comrades at @SEARCH_Aus, we've just recruited a second Commissioning Editor for Australia! @ZaccyGp is principled and clear-eyed. Only problem, he's just not stressed enough — so pls send him your pitches!

@BarbraStreisand @JigsawProds @alexgibneyfilm @LeDoctor @KennedyMarshaII AND YOU ARE NOT UGLY! Never thought so, never will!

For years I’ve been thinking about the best way to share the vast amount of content I’ve been safely storing in my vault, much never seen or heard by the public. And today I’m delighted to finally share that we’re starting production on my official documentary. I’m looking forward to working with Frank Marshall, Alex Gibney and Sony Music to bring this very personal project to screens around the world.  Photo by Firooz Zahedi.

@sophstein @magculture Do you ever accept paid submissions? I'd love to write about the intersection of environment and keeping bastions of paid journalism alive.

Such a buzz to do @magculture's #AtWorkWith this week! Come bask in some high quality mag inspo with me: magculture.com/blogs/journal/… (apologies to my bike, ily)

@AliceGiddings3 Yes. He did something so gross it's embarrassing to even say. But that's how I knew he wasn't a con artist. Contact me if interested. Won't say what it was publicly

were you embarrassed when you first started dating your significant other? I want to hear from you for an article for Metro (can be anon)

@tonyfasousa Um, I just realized that this name has almost been ripped off by someone I know who published a fiction novel. I thought it was them! Holy crap what a con artist. The name is so similar it's uncanny!

@angxlmartinez @Dazed I'm a freelance writer. I survive on investments, other small jobs and gigs and contribute stories probably 4-5 times a month.

@IllyNOTLilly I thought it was a gigantic cockroach

Is anyone here old enough to make an educated guess about what this is?

@Sassafrass_84 I might need more education to understand this

💩 posting. I dont get it. Do you?

@CaitlinKellyNYC A certain publication accepted then reneged is that acceptable? I thought it was but I'm not sure.

If you, a staff editor, assigned a story, it’s a basic professional expectation you’ll acknowledge receipt of it; edit it w/in weeks or explain a delay; deal with our revisions promptly, publish and pay. Yes, you’re overloaded but we meet our deadlines and the bills keep coming.

@MelCityofLit Can't access call out page. Keeps bombing out

We are looking for Writers and Graphic storytellers! - mailchi.mp/b20ef482abb6/w…

@latsot Smokey

If all goes well with the adoption process, we'll be getting this kitten. He's going to need a name. Go.

@k8_lister I've been saying this throughout much of my writing. You have all this energy but often times it's hard to direct it. You might be up all night and come out with two words. Thank god someone is listening!

@FoodPornPhotos Well not that many!

Pickles do not belong on a cheeseburger…….. 🚨 Agree or disagree?
