Hi,

I'm looking for a clever and witty sports writer/journalist. The gig will entail a daily roundup of all the national sports news. Your job will be to write approx a paragraph(60 words or less) worth of witty commentary on each news article(approx 10 headlines/articles a day).

This is a Mon-Fri gig and shouldn't take more than an hour each night/day, but I need someone who is serious and willing to help me build this publication.. Not looking for flakes or a temporary position. You ideally have a job doing something else, but are so passionate about writing and sports that you're willing spend an hour a night doing these fun write-ups on the day's sports news.

Education and age is not important, English skills/grammar, wittiness and a passion for sports are. Creativity and fun/good person are key as well.

As you can tell, I'm no wordsmith, so that's where you come in the picture!

Send me a writing sample or let me know why you'd like the role of you don't have any samples.

Cheers!

Eric

PAY: This is a completely out of pocket gig for me so I can only spend about 75 dollars a week tops :( or about 15 bucks and hour(each day shouldn't be more than an hour worth of writing). I know that seems very low, but unfortunately until I can find funding, that's all I can afford. This is definitely a labor of love job and when this thing takes off, if we work well together you immediately become Editor in Chief!
