welcomes new writers
Pay: Pays $0.17 - $0.25 (USD) per word for 150-2000 words.
Hints: What annoys us most is receiving generic 'Christian living' articles from U.S.-based writers who have made no effort to tailor their work to the Canadian audience (e.g. by incorporating Canadian statistics or interviewing Canadians). Read the writers guidelines on our website before submitting. A proven writer willing to do Canadian research is one we would consider assigning a feature story to.
Photos/Art: Stock photos, non-traditional religious; occasionally we commission art to accompany feature articles that discuss concepts such as justice, hypocrisy, religious devotion, etc. Pays $17-$215 (USD).
