I saw a freelance science writing opportunity at Futurum advertised on
Twitter recently and made contact with Brett. His response is below...

We’re creating a bank of reliable and skilled writers who are able to write
feature-length articles (2,000) words on complex scientific subjects on an
ad hoc basis. All of the materials will be supplied to you, including the
researcher interview, a detailed brief and an article template for you to
follow.



Your remit will be to turn technical content into an article that is
suitable for a young audience, and to create an accompanying activity
sheet. Please take a look at our current articles:
https://futurumcareers.com/articles and activity sheets:
https://futurumcareers.com/activity-sheets



To start with, we pay £90 per article and activity sheet – a fee that will
be reviewed on completion of 3 articles and if you meet the standards
required this fee will be increased to £150 per article and activity sheet.



If you think this is for you, please contact Karen at [log in to unmask]
She will send you a short writing test to assess your suitability.



We look forward to working with you!



Brett and Karen
