I am hiring two remote freelance writers to write VGIM while I’m on book leave in the summer.

I am looking for a couple of top notch writers to help me out by:

• Crafting five VGIMs across the course of June, July and August.
• Ensuring each newsletter follows house style (i.e. features lots of puns).
• Uploading them to Substack’s back end for me to run the rule over.

While I will consider all relevant applications, I am particularly keen to bring on writers who can demonstrate i) that they can compose crisp copy to a deadline, ii) know the games landscape and iii) understand the industry sits in a wider political, cultural and commercial context.

And in return for freeing their lance up for me, each successful writer will be paid £1500 for five newsletters (a rate of £300 per edition of VGIM produced).

Interested in applying? Send me a short email outlining why you think you’d be a great fit for VGIM with links to your work to george@videogamesindustrymemo.com by Friday 28th March.
