Dear Writers,

Here’s our latest roundup of traditional writing and editing jobs.

Included in this list are jobs from famous companies such as Hearst, DC Comics, and Buzzfeed.

While there are a few remote jobs listed here, I’ve noted that we’ve found fewer remote jobs than in previous job roundups. This is not a surprise, as more companies are able to safely ask that full time employees become vaccinated and work from an office.
