welcomes new writers
Pay: Pays flat fee of $100-$250 for 750-1200 words.
Hints: I don't want tired, stock historic, textbook stories on the history of a particular collectible. I want stories with currency of some sort. For example, instead of a dry history of Depression glass, interview dealers and collectors and give me a timely account of the market today. Why is it popular now?
Photos/Art: Payment above is for text and photos together.
