Freelance Writing Jobs: the monthly round-up

All the upcoming deadlines you need to know about.

Hiya, how’s your morning going? I’m up to my eyes in print outs and red pen today. I actually love this part of writing, it helps me get a much wider sense of the thing I’m working on. Still, it’s Sunday, so it also helps to have pastries.

I’m so excited for this round-up issue. It’s such a great selection of big dream opportunities that I love sharing with you, from travel and food writing, to exciting residencies all over the world.

I’ve also added a brand new section, listing almost twenty funding opportunities with rolling applications. I’ve benefitted from several of these funds myself, and I hope they can offer you support when you need it most.
