The number of freelance writing jobs we have available is growing. As our work expands, we need experienced professionals with a passion for telling people’s stories. Our writing and interviewing team members are independent contractors and are assigned by the job. While some of our freelance writing jobs require working in person (such as conducting oral history interviews), we have other jobs that can be done online. If you have experience, stellar work ethic, and the right heart, we encourage you to browse our articles and videos for the flavor of what we do.
As of 2018, we have about as much work as our small team can keep up with, so it is time to deepen our talent lineup. Here are examples of freelance writing jobs and other opportunities we foresee in the near future:
- Article contributors/bloggers – we pay for articles or can do in-kind link swaps/cross promotions for relevant content
- Oral history interviewers
- Family story writers for everything from short vignettes to video scripts to full books
- Editors
- Video experts
- Graphic designers
- Genealogists
- Archivists
- Office/bookkeeping/administrative assistants
We are located in Utah and that is currently where we do the bulk of freelance writing jobs are, but we have projects in other locations too.
To be considered for future work, please drop us a note using our contact form and we can start the conversation from there.
