Opportunity: Write Stories or Essays on Digital Ethics
February 16th 2011 22:07
A Solid Writing Opp for a Prestigious Website
I came across the following freelance writing opportunity on several different job boards today and wanted to share it with you for several reasons:
1. It's not your average, run-of-the-mill writing opp. It's interesting and different.
2. If this type of writing interests you (or you happen to be especially good at it), you can earn quite a decent return for your efforts.
3. You'll be writing for a prestigious university website, which can only enhance your writing portfolio.
4. Writing on this topic for this website will help you establish yourself as a credible authority on serious Internet-related topics.
5. This is a direct-contact job opportunity, rather than one that provides a Craigslist e-mail address or some such temporary contact info that often expires before you've even had a chance to inquire about the position.
6. It appears likely that a writer who is competent in writing about this topic will find ongoing work in this market.

I agree! This website pays a fair price for the work it purchases, which makes it a viable market for the writer who can write clear, compelling, and authoritative content on the topic of digital ethics -- a very pertinent topic for the online writer, in fact.
Hope you'll consider submitting!
