Seeking Freelance Nurse Authors to serve as Regular Contributors
I am seeking four freelance (hint: 1099) nurses to serve as the regular contributors for a monthly publication.
Each nurse author will be paid a flat fee for a 500 word article with web references. The regular contributor will have his/her name listed as the contributor for the piece and will be able to include a short bio with his/her contact information including email address. There are several benefits to being the regular contributor for these column including opportunities for professional growth and development.
The monthly publication is not a nursing journal. Therefore the writing style required is somewhere between a nursing blog and a nursing magazine.
