Do you love to write?
Do you love Santa Cruz?
If so, then we should chat.
We are looking for local (yes, you need to live in Santa Cruz County) freelance writers to contribute blog posts on a regular basis.
What We’re Looking For
Here’s what we’re looking for in our writers:
- You know and love Santa Cruz
- You love to write, and have great writing samples you can share with us
- You can write in an engaging conversational style. Knack for telling a story is preferred over journalism chops (but it’s great if you have both)
You don’t have to be able to write about everything. In fact, we’re looking for local experts. Are you an avid outdoor enthusiast? Then you can write about outdoor activities. Are you a foodie? Then you can write about local restaurants. You get the idea.
