  • Submit clean, publish-ready copy on deadline
  • Pitch original  headlines or  story concepts depending on your skill set
  • Collaborate with editors to ensure content quality and discoverability

We're Looking for Writers Who

  • Bonus: Familiarity with SEO, WordPress, Trello, and Google Trends
  • Can provide 1–3 relevant writing samples in the sports or celebrity news space
