Freelance Writing Opportunities for J-School Students
contact DARRELL LAURANTThe Writers' Bridge is an international freelance cooperative that connects writers with fresh ideas and new markets...sort of like an agent for freelancers. We are offering a 50% discount for students, so, for $5 a month we will help student members find legitimate and paying markets and help them edit and pitch their stories.
This service can be of particular benefit to j-school students who are graduating and need to supplement their income and generate clips, or for any j-schooler who will have more time to pursue freelance opportunities in the summer.
Here’s exactly what we do….

• Assistance pitching articles and editing drafts...until an article is placed
• Weekly “Idea Bank” of relevant story ideas that reflect current events and trends.
