We are NOT an agency. We're looking for a senior level writer with an interest in some or all of the following:

• vintage, antique and collectibles
• ecommerce and auctions
• home maintenance / interior decor
• senior transitioning / downsizing

Writers we are looking for must be native English speakers with impeccable grammar and spelling who can research a given topic, write engaging text that is easy to read, informative and speaks to a given target audience in a way that makes them want to bookmark the article as a resource.

Articles will be long-form (2-4k words each), detailed, research-backed (with proper sourcing and fact-checking), but also engaging for readers, written in an approachable tone that invites them to act. You will be expected to conduct and transcribe phone interviews with relevant influencers in the space if and when appropriate.

The content must also be informative and provide real value to the reader. It goes without saying that every article must be completely original.

We will not accept poorly written filler content.

For each article, writers we choose to work with will be provided with a topic and in some cases a specific title, short description/summary, useful links, and other guidelines.
